M12000 winch with Road Armor Bumper

I am getting ready to mount my M12000 in my Road Armor bumper, but in order to get the hand for ingaging/disengaging the winch, the mounting feet have to be forward. The Road Armor bumper does not make these accomidations----only for mounting feet forward?!?! Any one else have this problem? I believe warn only recommends feet forward on the 12/15/16.5 winches. If this is the case----WTF do I do? I'd hate to think I wasted all that money on a bumper that won't work with the appropriate winch (i.e. 1.5 * 7000= 10500 (+ resistance of whatever your stuck in). Any options or people with experience would be great----especially those with a RA bumper! Thx
