    Default Feeler-winch cable and fairlead.



    I just bought some synthetic winch cable and a Hawse fairlead. Once I have it installed I will have the cable and roller fairlead from a 9k smitybuilt winch. The cable is clean, no kinks, never pulled anything,

    Anyone have an interest in this. Price will be right a 6-12 pack of dos Equis amber.

    I might be interested in the cable...not sure if the roller fairlead would work for me as the old ramsey winches used a wider fairlead - I think....

    I just ordered a hawse fairlead license plate bracket. It won’t arrive until Nov 2 at the earliest. Once I get things swapped out I will let you know James.

    No rush Tom...I am thinking I could probably use a nice new steel cable on my old winch - the old cable is a bit kinked and fraying just a bit in spots. The ramsey fairlead mounts are 11" apart - not sure what the standard Warn/smittbilt etc ones are today. If it fits, I'd definitely take it - if not, then I'd probably still take it if no one else wants it...I am sure I can find some future unknown project to put it to use.

    I'll be in Longmont this weekend. I could grab it from Tom and get it partway down south if it helps.
