Yeah that’s awesome, just ordered the blue one yesterday can’t wait to get my car hauler I Have the trailer already. I just went to your link it is the winch back order right now figures, sure appreciate you sharing

[@RoadsideRC]

Thanks for checking! I guess that winch sold quick.

I got a hauler and trailer when they first released. I ended up putting a traxxas winch on both with their own remotes. Pretty much did the same as wiring on power in the truck. The trailer I ran the power to a small 2s battery in the front tool box. As for mounting I apoxied a trx4 mount to the winch tray on the hauler and trailer and then screwed the winch to the mount.

[@RoadsideRC]

Interesting! I am surprised the epoxy is strong enough to hold the mount. Glad it worked for you!

Great video winch didn’t get in way of battery compartment? Thanks

[@RoadsideRC]

Nope! The winch is mounted to the pivoting panel that is there. Works great!

[@gabrielpichardo1492]

That's an awesome mod. I need a winch like that for my wpl b36-3

[@RoadsideRC]

Great! You should see a link to the winch in the video description. Let me know if it is not there.

Don't forget to unwind the winch all the way and respol it with tenchin so that the wire is trained and less likely to puff up and unwind all of it at once

[@RoadsideRC]

Great tip!

I am so inspired by this RTR...my first scratch 1/10 is going to be a Cab over Hauler as well...that or convert some of my old 1/24 to RC... HAHAHAHA

[@RoadsideRC]

Sounds like a fun project to me!

That turned out great! very cool mod brother, Troy could you tell me the brand of tool that you used like your 2mm bit, I need a set of these

[@RoadsideRC]

Hi there! Unfortunately, the exact one I have has been discontinued. Here is one very similar: SKIL Rechargeable 4V Cordless Screwdriver with Circuit Sensor Technology Includes 45pcs Bit Set, USB Charging Cable, Carrying Case - SD561204 www.amazon.com/dp/B07F2BL1P3/?coliid=I1UWXWY5XV1ECJ&colid=K7TQJPY3T998&psc=1&ref_=cm_sw_r_apann_lstpd_4F7T1A3KW7TC1Q035X1S&language=en_US

[@jeemsi]

Could you have droppet the plate and just use 4 longer screws for the winch itself?

[@RoadsideRC]

Maybe! Just mount the winch directly to the bed surface? That could have worked!

[@andrewrichey7374]

Awesome I’ll be watching for more well until the next time peace and chicken grease 😁🤙🤙😎
