Consider the Recon 10.5K winch. You can get it for under $500 shipped. It comes standard with synthetic line and two remotes (wired/wireless). They are pretty new to market but have earned a great reputation so far.

Just to clarify: A snatch block can also be hooked up to change pull direction without increasing pull power.

Ok I'll definitely look at that too. It's definitely inexpensive
