Winch newbie hawse fairlead question (1 Viewer)

[RyanTomorrow]

Hi all:
Please excuse the painfully n00b question, but searching has yet to yield a straight answer:

Is it kosher to bolt my hawse fairlead through my bumper using the same bolt that’s attaching my winch foot? Meaning one bolt that is sandwiching the fairlead, bumper, spacer and winch? Make sense?

ARB bull bar and Comeup Seal Gen2 9.5 on an 80 Series for reference.

Yes.

Agreed... yes. Be sure to torque the bolts properly.
Here’s a good article on proper winch mounting.

Beautiful, thanks! Will check the torque spec once I get the proper hardware in place.
