Viper Winch – Fairlead

Hi Guys,

Have a Viper winch (3000 Ib) for 2 years. I noticed at the end of last years plow season, the aluminum rollers that the cables runs in / out on was significantly rutted on one side, to the point where it actually damaged the steel cable. It was the end if the season and I just flipped the roller.

I am using a 60" Plow.

I was surprised that this happened – I only plow for myself – and last season was not bad.

Are these rollers a weak link in this winch?

Are there any aftermarket rollers I can get for this winch – or do I replace the whole roller housing with an aftermarket product?

thanks
