    Tough Stuff has been talking about making this for awile now I am glad to see its finaly out. I like the fact that it keeps your hand from getting inside the fairlead when winding up the winch line.

        Custom Splice is fairly local, they have Pro-link thimbles and Factor 55 flat link .

        My preference is a safety hook. Van Beest Excel makes a great safety hook!

          I run the pro link from custom splice and I absolutely love it! No more noise from it rattling around, throw my d-ring on it and pull it. Very safe and easy to use.
          Some people just need to get over themselves.

            I don't understand how this secures/attaches to the end of the cable/syn line.

                If you go to their web site, they have the installation instructions for cable and syn line down at the bottom of the page.
