    There is no issue with running a roller fairlead with a synthetic line, metal or synthetic rollers it doesn't matter as long as they are smooth. In my opinion it's actually better using a roller fairlead for your synthetic line as a hawse causes abrasion any time you are pulling at an angle.

    Not sure i am torn between a hook and Thimble. My only concern about thimbles is using up more d rings.

    Just seems you are buying overpriced hook :notsure: Gunmetal pretty cool.

    Are you talking about this bad boy?

    http://www.warn.com/truck/accessories/premium_winch_hook.shtml

    And I love to waste money apparently!
