I friend of mine runs a 9000lbs winch in the back.  He made a rear bumper that integrated into the frame for a permanent setup.  You could do a hitch setup if you wanted to BUT you'll be added a lot more length to the Jeep as well as sacrificing the ability to pull from the side.  Although you could also have mount on the side of the Jeep so you can do side pulls.  You can't really put a winch under the Jeep so that's out.  Maybe mount one to the cage on the floor and then have the cage attached to the frame.  You can't have a back seat and it would probably be better to remove the rear tailgate as well.

Gerald one of the competitors from Belgium uses this setup as well as a top winch in his Rubicon he has done very well with it.
