I just bought some new winchline at Alaska Rubber and Rigging
I got 125' of Aircraft Grade Galvanized cable, a hook, and a eye crimped on the winch end of the cable for just under $56. The cable is domestic 7x19 cable which is the same cable which originally came on the winch. I could have upgraded to an improved 6x26 cable (import though), but would have paid at least twice as much and had to wait a week.
They do stock the improved cable in 3/8" and larger sizes if you're in need of new winchline. The improved 3/8" was something like $0.84 per foot.
Man, the 125' is quite the improvement over the 77' of old cable that was on the drum.
