Detours backbone ?

I'm picking up a used backbone this weekend and I'm trying to find out what size winch will it hold. Any body have one that can chime in?

I know someone with an XRC 8 on theirs. Does the site not say? Most have the same mounting pattern.

Can't remember the exact dimensions of the mounting plate, but it is the standard size for almost every winch out there (at least the ones you would need to pull your XJ).

Cool I was thinking my 12000# winch might be to big but I just checked the mounting bolt pattern and compared it with a 8000# winch and they are the same.
