Tony, I have just installed a 3/8" x 100' plasma rope onto mine. Nice size.

Use light weight gearbox oil 30w

There is a good write up on Pirate about rebuilding a high mount. Its worth having a look at.

Malcolm Leslie who mods winches down here in Vic recommends using gear oil (85-90). I've been using this and haven't had any problems.

I used 11mm plasma on my high mount and i have around 45m i think. If you get 9mm, you could probably get another 5-10m.
