Stay away from the Tuff Stuff. Notice how the 3/4" Tuff Stuff has a lower rating than the 3/8" TJM?

L8 had decent $ on their offering. Got on for rear.
Fish, directed me to the one I have on the front. I can't remember brand. Will look

I got a 3/8" Master Pull line, 85', on Amazon for a good price. ASR had good prices on lines and offer a Pirate BB discount, but they d*cked me around and had to tell them to pound sand.

Other thing, do I need the urethane rollers? Or polished billet fair lead?

Yes. Or a new, never used, steel roller fairlead. A used one will have scratches and whatnot that will fray synthetic line.
Plus a hawse fairlead just looks so much better.

So what's better? The urethane rollers or billet alum?

I think it comes down to personal preference. I like the slim profile and sleek look of the hawse. Doesn't stick out as far as the roller fairlead which depending on the bumper could make a difference on approach angle or how well exposed it is to damage.
