March 2014 Update: Thanks to all the folks who pointed out that RC4WD now sell a 1:10 replica Warn winch, similar to the 3Racing one in this video
While the Plastidip is drying for the rest of the waterproofing of the Axial AX9002: SCX-10 2012 Jeep Wrangler Unlimited Rubicon Builders Kit, I got the 3Racing winch installed using an RC Rock Armour fairlead and custom mounting brackets for a really scale look.
In the next part of the build series we finish the waterproofing and wiring, then we can test with some water!…
