And depending on which way it is pointed in the garage reach way in to connect the winch to a solid portion of the frame or crossmember in front or onto the rear axle. Possibly toward the side of a bumper would work in the area where they are attached directly to the frame but if the wheels are locked and you drag instead of roll the bumpers could bend.

There is an easy to reach stabilizer bar with fairly thick brackets in front and a fairly thin cross piece between frame sides in the rear. DO NOT be tempted to use them because they are BOTH way too flimsy to use as anchors and will bend.
