Here is an image of the winch on my '51 (thanks Phil Street and t137.com). It is the straightest one I have ever owned. However it is bent though it may be hard to see from this photo. It is actually bent about .125 outward in the middle where the shaft passes through. The parting webs in the forging should be dead nuts directly in line with one another - one behind the shaft and one in front of the shaft - both on the top surface of the bracket.
