2wd front winch mount? Looking for ideas please.

[77Impala]

My darling wife wants me to look into buying and mounting a winch on our truck. Kind of one of those 'better to have it and not need it then to not have it and needed it last month'. She recommended it for like situations of pulling some one out of a ditch or even myself (though as of yet I have not driven one into a ditch, but I know there is "always the first time").

What is the best way to mount one onto this truck?

Also what weight rating do most of you run on your trucks?

I would get a front hitch so you can move your winch from front to back. If you put your truck in a ditch nose first and bury your winch it makes it hard to use.
