Build one, check local welding shops and see what they have on hand for steel and what they'll charge for it.

This is the one I built for my 12,000 lb Milemarker winch back in January. It's made from 8 inch used channel iron from a bridge and some other scraps I had laying around. I bought nothing for it. It is built plenty heavy.

If you want to go for a 500 mile drive and pick one up ..  :-\     or get it shipped ?
You might have to fab up some mounting brackets.
