JD 550 3325 Winch Control Cable Blocks

Can anyone share a picture or description of where the control cable blocks get mounted? I have the bolt for one set up closer to the control lever, but the parts diagram and the service manual don't really show the second location. Thanks!

The clamps go on the fixed metal ends of the cable jacket. On a 450E the one on the handle end is about 8 to 10 inches below the handle in a hole in the side panel under the seat, it sounds like you are set on this one. The one on the winch valve end is mounted on a bracket towards the center of the winch from the valve, that bracket is shown in the 550 parts catalog, so I believe the mounting points are very similar if not the same.

I don't know why when I was looking at the diagram, I saw the two sides of the same clamp and thought it was two separate clamps. Oh well, I broke one of them so I ordered the 4 replacements....
