Which synthetic winch line?

[Alan06SUT]

Ok, my steel line is all frayed and smashed etc. It is starting to get scary when using it! I am going to switch over to a synthetic cable. My winch is the H2 Multi-mount 9.5ti. What size 3/8" right? And what brand? Are any colors better or worse due to UV rays? It will sit outside much of the time. I heard you should switch to an aluminium fairlead as well. Is this true?

Thanks.

105' of Amsteel. Make sure to use an aluminum Haas fairlead.

Thanks what kind of termination do you recommend? 3/8" right?

I ordered the 125ft of 3/8" Viking combo line: 25 ft of the fire line so I dont have to worry about the line melting to my roller, and the rest Am-steel blue w/ the safety thimble on the end.

I'll take some pics once its installed.

This AmSteel line is the way to go! I was able to barely fit 125FT of the 3/8" line on my Warn Multi Mount. Its so much easier to deal with and saves 27 lbs over the steel cable. Also the safety thimble keeps your fingers a bit safer (you dont have to hook to the handle anymore)
