Could Lippert Tire Winch Mount Fit 2020 Coachmen 240 FS

Question:

I have a 2020 Coachmen 240 FS which is built on a 2019 E450, with a V10 engine. There is a place for a spare tire hoist which has pre-installed bolts coming down from the frame. It looks like it’s all set up to accept a winch already. Will the Lippert Spare Tire Winch with Offset Cable Item # LC159056 bolt right onto the frame? What else would I need to make this work besides a mounted spare. As you can see from a photo, I have the uncounted spare strapped up into the area created for a spare. One note on the photos…the angle iron with installed bolts frame piece shown runs parallel to the road. Thanks for your help,

It's possible the Lippert Spare Tire Winch with Offset Cable # LC159056 could attach to the studs you have under your RV frame but the studs would need to be 5-1/4 inch apart on center as this has mounting holes that are 5-1/4 inches apart. The width of the mounting bracket is 1-3/4 inches so the channel this would fit into would need to be at least that big.
