Both the Hidden Hitch and Curt frame-mount receivers are straightforward to install and strong. I have the Hidden Hitch, and welded a solid angled ball mount to a steel plate for my carry platform. Would doing this to the winch cradle raise it enough?

Yea I have been cutting welding and fabricating 25yrs. I think you can get it up on top and still be easily removed you could use the factroy bumper without the plastic cover with a little reinforcing or any after market bumper that top mounts a winch. Youre idea has interested me as I have never liked the current options for a removable winch.

Having some trouble envisioning what you're saying.

Found this thread looking for a way to quick disconnect the winch power as well as the solenoid/control box mounted under the hood.
Pronghorn Overland has a bumper system with a winch mount that lets you attach the winch on the front, rear or side of the JK.
