most standard height winches will fit such as goodwinch, winchmax superwinch, winch-it, warrior, warn etc
they will have a standard bolt spacing of 254mm x 114.3mm
dont go for a bridge mounth solenoid version as these are bulky. the type where the solenoid is in a box is better because you can move this up to the top of the engine bay to keep it dryer if wading.
I'd always buy a winch with a synthetic rope rather than a wire for safety ( a wire breaking under tension could take your head off, a rope will just fall to the floor)
Here is a couple of pics of ours - whilst its mounted in a winch bumper you can see it will easily fit behind a standard bumper
