mount tucked up in the area an ATV winch..... so when you pull the whole thing out..... it is holding it a bit..... then winch it up and tuck it away.. or lower it onto the tounge of trailer after you hook it up..... and strap it to the tongue??

hopefully the bent stuff is from Idiots moving it with a Fork Lift. Which is actually a common issue. that said look close at every inch of housing of transmission for cracks (in case issues there is why originally got taken out of service). Also check rear pumpkin... , Ujoint, pinion...

did you find the hidden ground strap in front of the truck and one under the fuse panel (PDP) https://www.steelsoldiers.com/threads/a0-alternator-excite-wire-question-get-well-grounded.220156/#post-2579205

have thought of a boat too. ... or better said..... dreamed. If did would lean too micro Jet boat so could scream across a water crossing to affix winch lines on other side in case things go bad in the crossing orrrrr.. bank on exit side is questionable...

Me too. My understanding you need to ground the truck. I thought about a spring loaded (or just heavy weighted) Rebar made into a spike. Pull a lever and it stabs into ground. Before leaving you crank a handle orrr?? to pull it back up.

while hope no one is ever in bad situation needing to pull that on side of road or trail. If so though maybe a chain binder and breaker bar.. or you own winch up front orr??? could serve the same purpose

different top on pipe.. 45 down, and/or rain cap. Can also put even a 1degree? down slope on pipe running to side of truck and 90 to vertical adapted just ever so to 89degree.... then a bung on bottom you can unscrew to drain water as part of monthly maintenance...
