I'm going to through this out there. Why not get a cargo carrier that fit in the reciever of the hitch. You would have a flat platform to mount the winch, it would removable, and you could use the carrier as a work area or for transporting the game. The only drawback is money, but you could use it as a starting point if your good at fabrication.

i think he was worried about weight for the entire rig, lifting and such...

not to mention that anything on the back of the bII is going to limit opening the tailgate

naw ford no i need a game hoist to lift the animal to skin it not a place to work or carry it i already have a friends truck we use to transport

why not build a bed cage for his truck, with an extendable boom and the winch on that?

something like this...

mount the winch up on the top, near the back, and have a pivoting arm that sits flush on the top, for driving, and when you fold it back, comes back and up, on like a 30* angle or something, and the winch cable running up the inside of that, with a couple pulleys on each end... wouldn't be hard at all to fab up once the cage is built...

basically all you would need is a mounting point and a decent length piece of channel, with a pulley inside, on each end, for the cable to go over...

kinda like this deal, but ontop of the rack... and without the legs of course...

hell, you could probably make one of those that slides into your receiver... just make sure you don't exceed the tongue weight... keeping in mind that this weight is measured differently, as it will have a twisting motion, due to the leverage on it, vs a trailer's direct down motion... if you do go with something mounted to your receiver, you might want it to have an outrigger of sorts, so that a lot of the weight is transferred back to the ground

or you could do up something like this...
