An improved elevator mounts its dead end hitches ( 38 A, 38 B, 38 C and 40 A, 40 B, 40 C) on the bedplate ( 46, 48 ) of a machine roomless elevator. The dead end hitches are preferably positioned on an upper surface of the bedplate such that they are easily accessible. Further, the governor ( 80 ) is mounted adjacent the machine ( 24 ) on the bedplate. Preferably, there are a plurality of dead end hitches and a plurality of connecting members connecting the car and counterweight. The plurality of dead end hitches are preferably aligned along lines (A and B) which are parallel to a drive axis of the drive sheave ( 30 ). Further, the plural connecting members are preferably each associated with a surface on a drive sheave and a pair of dead end hitches. A line drawn through a sheave surface and its two associated dead end hitches would be perpendicular to the rotational drive axis.
