Default ARB Deluxe Bumper with Hawse fairlead

Wondering if it is possible. I know the fairlead is recessed, but don't know how far, so don't know how thick of a fairlead would be needed.

Anyone have info or know what works that is thick enough to prevent the line from rubbing on the bumper.

Thanks!
Mike

I ended up going back to a roller there was too much recess to use my fairlead. Someone could fab up some spacers but I've been 2 years and about 30 pulls without an issue.
