Default Seeking suggestions on removable winch

Does anyone run with a winch that you only install when you need to use it?

I have a JCR front bumper tied into the unibody and am looking for ideas on attaching a removable winch, perhaps a setup that uses the D-rings as mounts.

Thanks,,

They make a winch cradle that slides in a hitch but its really a bad idea.To use it on the front youll have to have a hitch there and if your stuck youll have to clear enough room to install it to use it after your stuck.Or you put it on before you wheel then its like a fat bottom lip and gets hung up on things.Or the classic i can use it front or back well you can and you can winch backwards with a winch on the front bumper just takes some turn blocks and straps.
