I installed a Sto-N-Sho on my wife's 2022 Gladiator Rubicon. I think it looks amazing.

I get that the OP was looking for winch compatible fixes. This does not fit that bill. Different applications require different solutions. Other folks will have different requirements and need to find a way that works for them. This one lets me stay street legal and no holes drilled in the front bumper.

Thanks - this would not work for my set up. See my original post and my original question. But thanks for the idea - looks good!

Small bungee cord (1/4") knotted each end. Slip it over the visor. Now you see it, now you don't!
And no extra holes in your bumper.

For those considering the Rugged Ridge 11238.07, Rugged Ridge makes a thin style hawse which is what this fits. In this case, if you have eg: a Warn EVO S10 hawse fairlead (much thicker/beefier than a R/R hawse), the R/R will not work unless you trim the plastic clips.

If you try clipping the R/R to a Warn EVO style hawse, the clips will pop right back off as soon as you relieve pressure.

The "fix" is to trim the plastic brackets in an "L" shaped manner ~even with the clips in the horizontal plane - and ~even with the screw mounts in the vertical plane.

A simple handsaw, Dremel etc will do the trick trimming the plastic.

This will allow the clips to reach further into the thicker hawse & do their job.
