Cory2,
You may want to check out www.pullpal.com These are an anchoring system the truck guys have used for years. I have thought about adding a winch for the same reasons you are. I would personally install the winch in the front. A rolling load does not require a very high line pull, but the suction from mud does. I would think you will want a winch with a rating 1.5 times the weight of your 4020. This should put you in the 15,000 lb range. You can also use a snatch block to double your line pull, but cut your line speed in half. You may want to check out Warn, Ramsey, Superwinch, and MileMarker to name a few. Sorry to ramble and good luck.
