Any recommendations for a good hawes fairlead for a Warn VR EVO 10k.
 
I thought they were pretty generic. :dntknw: Just a shaped piece of aluminum with bolt holes, right?
 
Yes, didn’t know if 1 was better than another or if there some to stay away from.
 
I really haven't seen reviews on fair leads at all, hawes or roller. The focus has always been on the winch itself.
 
I just snagged a generic $15 one from Amazon. The big thing is to watch for nicks that will damage your rope.

Maybe the "better" ones are harder to nick, I don't know.

Warn has some nice looking ones but you pay dearly for them.

Be aware what is around it too, some have fancy nameplates and whatnot. Make sure the slot in the fairlead is smaller than the slot in whatever the fairlead is mounted to. Like in my case I was going to put a plate behind the fairlead to mount my front license plate to so the fancy nameplate ones wouldn't work.
