Winch Cable Guide ??

[LRDV8]

Hey guys, i'm fitting a winch to my disco in a week or so and wanted to know if i can get a fairled plate (not roller) for steel cable, like what they use for plasma/dynamica rope ?

[McDisco]

Why would you?! Most fairly leads are aluminium and will just get scratched up and damaged. Stick with a roller unless your going for winch rope.

Irun a hawse fairlead with wire rope, your not reall meant to but:eek:

Yeh you can - I own one.

Mine is the Warn brand - and is designed for cable.

It is cast iron - not alloy

Cheers.

Hmm...doesnt sound like a good idea to me. But hey...if it works.

I used winch rope with a aluminium fairlead.

DaveS3, what did they sting you for the warn guide ???

[DaveS3]

They are about $80 or so bucks from warn - but I got mine with the bar I bought.
