Here is an idea to consider when mounting your winch. When I put an electric winch on my trailer, I mounted the winch onto a piece of solid 2 inch square stock. Then I mounted a receiver just in front of the cross support on the trailer. That way the winch just plugs into the trailer receiver and doesn't interfere with the loading area.
The main variation to this is that when I mounted the winch on the 2 inch square bar, I left a piece sticking out on each end. That way, I can just pull it off the trailer and plug it into the receiver on the truck when I need it there. Works great.
As to a source for the winch, I got lucky and found one on Sam's Club Auction. I guess when they get to the end of a run on something they market the leftovers on the internet. My 7,500 lb winch cost less than $200 delivered to my door.
