    I picked up a winch today i think its a ramsey but has no markings. Has a prestolite mbj4408 motor. I think im going to have to mount it on a 45 degree angle so it fits. It has to be above the bumper i think because of the saganaw steering box. Anyway I need a fairlead for it they all seem to be sold as 10" but thats to the mounting holes so would that be what i want for a 8" drum?

    For your 8" drum get fairlead opinions on the common 7" (+/-) side roller to side roller.

    In searching the web, this is the closest to your winch I could find, so thought I'd post it.

    A Warn fair lead would be a good match for any 8” drum.
    Either the roller type or the Hawse.

    Cool I ordered a fairlead. I guess it must be one of those models. Even if its an early one without the added features the same basics will apply. Thank you
