Winch mount question

I just got a deal on a single car 20' aluminum car trailer and have a recovery winch for it. Is there anything special that I need to do to mount the winch or can I just bolt it up like I did with my old steel trailer? Any help would be appreciated.

Be careful with aluminum its softer then steel and could rip the winch out from its mount....I would consider steel on the bottom side so the mount bolts go thru the steel but remember steel and aluminum will corrode so you will need somthing between them to stop that like a poly sheet
