Default Mounting Winch off-center?

I want to mount my Winch behind the front crossmember (under the radiator). However, if I center the winch, it hits the steering box. Is there any reason why the winch couldn't be mounted off-center towards the passenger's side? The mount is 1/4" plate.

You have to mount it off center to get it to fit.
Here is how much mine is off center. I am running the boostwerks winch mount.
