best way is to cut a hitch off a truck at the wreckers and weld it on the tongue of your trailer, and weld 2x2 or what ever the reciver size onto the botton of the winch plate is so you can take it on and off like you would a ball or pintal hitch on your trailer or car. plus you can use your winch on your truck as well incase your buddie pulls off the side of the road to far when pulling over for a leak.
