thanks, its a fujimi model from japan (ordered it off ebay 35$ or something, steep price to pay, but i own a real one so i needed it! .It was a little small so i made it a hard single cab and extended the bed, everything else i made from super glue and scraps

it really is. thanks
well i got my new functioning winch in!

and a look at the guts. lights and winch in body and a few mods to the crawler


in this pic it was pulling. its strong enough to move the rc slowly and it has a winding winch kinda noise too
the only thing i dont like is that i cant stop and start it on demand,but for not being able to i think it is at a perfect tension.

liveforocks my wheel base is just a drooped micro crawler which is 4.25 inches and i extended the model .25. if the model 1/24 suzuki jimny is not on ebay maby on a hobby site or something. rapttor the winch is a part from an old battlebots toy. i couldnt even figure out what it did other than work as a perfect winch haha

I got a 1/15 sammuria hard body, its the perfect wheelbase for a rc18t, but it might be a little too heavy. I made the spare tire mount, can put headlights and tail lights from scx10 would look cool, I painted the hunter green trim color.
