Hey Ben, no you would not need to drill new holes in your winch mount to install the etrailer boat winch part # e75VV. This has the standard winch mounting bracket design that is slotted so it will work great in place of your Shelby. How did you like the Shelby?

Hey Ben, did the etrailer boat winch fit well on your mount without needing any new holes? I'm curious to know how it worked out for you, as it could help others with similar setups.
