A week ago I didn't know what a fairlead was I do now. It basically helps keep your winch cable rolling nicely on its spool. It is a must in the deep woods on a ATV.
I nearly ruined my winch hauling my wifes bike out of the woods with it. Anyway it got tangled up badly and got wrapped up between the spoil and the motor. I bought the quad used nd there was no fairlead. I picked up a kit from Canadian Tire , a Canadian auto motive and out door retailer, and reinstall the winch and put the fairlead on.
Here a video of the simple process. Note this is a beginner posting for beginners
