I'm changing the color of my safety hook. I'm using blue synthetic line and I'm thinking of changing from an uncoated aluminum fairlead to a red anodized one. Of the three colors below which one would you choose?

This is the fairlead. I'm also thinking of staying with the fairlead I have on now.

The fairlead looks best polished, and you need to have DRTYFN stamped in it.
In my opinion:D
Don't you have a fairlead that's pewter?

Whats this? DRTYFN caring about the color of a hook. Next you'll be adding chrome and a set of 22s. :giggling:

I would just take your current one and have it powder coated the color you want. Out of the three colors I would go with the red. The yellow would go good but the red just looks better. The blue is just to pastel (ly).

I'd go for the red hook. Where did you find that anodized fairlead?

DRTY with me not being into this stuff but, I do look at things that look good or safety. With red then blue rope I think it would look good with a yellow hook plus it would make the hook more safety concious concerning things coming loose some time. The eye seems to catch yellow quickest. I could explain that more but, for sake of brevity the yellow recommendation comes from experience in sport safety factors that i'm involved in. I would think should a hook come loose etc, that being able to spot it quickly could be very helpful and life saving. I would not BS You on this DRTY You know that.

Good Luck,

TAZ

First I would definitely do the rainbow color. I know deep down that's what you really hope everyone would tell you.

Secondly, with that camo paint job on the fairlead, I almost didn't see it.

Some, come on out you ghey boy!

I can't believe you actually care. What happened to belonging to the HeMan Woman Hater's Club. You should be proud!

OK, I don't know you guys, but why use a safe-T hook, what's wrong with an unsafe hook? Safety is for girls!:beerchug:

Safety hooks are the hottness. The new hottnesses are the safety thimbles.

Now I can get with that! Having said that, when I bought my last winchline, I opted for the wimpy metal loop and a plain jane clevis...

Thanks DRTY for the praise even though backhanded as it were. :)
I'm trying harder to be more short with my musings.

AWE!!!!! Shucks DRTY you are embarrasing me. :)

Yet anyway print a copy for me in all colors matching my H2 and send it to me. Framed of course as we both know how such a momentous occasion this is. :) :) I will happily reimburess you for material etc.

PM me when ready and i will give you my address to ship to. You can also let me know where to send money to. If you do not have my info already. You are one of the forums master sleuths. :)

We that have been around a number of years know that already. You NEWBIES please take this as a friendly warning. I do not recommend crossing light sabers with this PI. You think I'm kidding but, I am a serious as death. He has been the Bounty Hunter for this sight a good number of years. There are 3 to 6 more in our group as many members have had to ask DRTY or one of the others to help with random sneak attacks on members.

Thanks Bud,
