The roller fairlead on my Ironman Monster 9500lb winch (older model of the one shown here - Ironman 4x4 Monster Winch (http://www.ironman4x4.com/html/mwinch12.html) ) doesn't spin, as such it has signs of 'rope burn'.

Is this likely due to it being a cheap/low quality roller fairlead and has become jammed up with dirt? If so, any particular brand/model that I should replace it with?
Or does this just happen and they need a regular strip and lube up?
