Hi Tony

The fairlead...front... on my cab 11... is the same as your picture... in fact I dismanteld it today for sandblasting...... but I fail to see where the quick spring release is on that contraption.....

Now, admitedly, my cab 11 had a winch retro fitted but very neatly installed probably by a skillful country mechanic.

See the pictures I have attached.... my front fairlead was mounted perfectly centered on the front bumper..... which leads me to beleive they never were able to use it........ I will reposition my fairlead in the proper offset and weld over the bolt holes....

One question.... when and if using to pull from the front.... was the cable going through the rear fairleads at all time and simply rolled over the bottom roller of the back fairlead......???

Thanks for your help.... I keep learning about this truck everyday.
