nice rig. yeah keeping the line spooled evenly is important, that way you dont kink the line or damage it. its best to spool it in under a load, ive always used a pry-bar to help guide the line and set it where i want. you might want to invest in some shackles, for you bumper, and then use some 3/4" ballcock washers(you can find them at any plumbing or ace hardwear store(home depot and lowes didnt have them) to keep the shackles from rattling around on your bumper. also if you want to put your license plate over the opening for your winch cable(i recommend this -saves the cable from getting road spray and grime all over it), you can buy those maglight wall mount clips... they are the perfect size for the rollers on the fairlead.
