Yes, the V4253 is a 2.5 warn (2500 lb) winch with a remote switch. I don't know if the 3.0 would fit or not. To get to the free spool, you can either get to it from the top or the front. With gloves on, it is tight from the top. I had to wait on the V4254 mounting kit also. I took pictures of the camo cab and as soon as we can get them downloaded, I will post them here for you. The winch does look good installed.
