Wouldn't want to run a winch via clamps, too much draw to be reliable. I've got a quick connect on the front, haven't ran one rearward as I'm going to be extending the truck to put a long bed on and don't want to waste the wire. So I have been just carrying the battery we use when the winch is on trailer duty in the bed. Also made up jumper cables that have proven pretty useful and there's a number of things a more "overland" style build could use them for.
I used this style but with a much higher rating of course and rubber covers to keep the moisture out.
