I would suggest going with an aluminum hause style fairlead rather than the galvanized one. The aluninum will be more foregiving than the galvanized steel one and won't wear the line as much which will give you more life out of your line in turn.

Like this one in the attached picture? Cause it's brand new installed Sunday and tried 2 pulls and the line seems to be wearing ALREADY!!!
Someone told me to switch to the Ugly roller type.
