|  After alot of searching I still can't find a cheap fake winch
Hey guys, I have my F350 body mounted to my SCX10 kit now, and with the Axial SCX10 TR bumper I am using there is a gap between the bottom of the front grill of the truck and the bumper. I think a winch mounted to the bumper would cover this gap quite nicely. But after searching for quite a while on both this site and the rest of the web the only cheap winches/fake winches I can find are these 2: http://www.rpphobby.com/ProductDetai...ode=PRO6040-00 and http://www.toyeast.com/v3/pdtdetail...._id=A02120379# The 2nd one is a crappy one from Hong Kong and the first one comes with alot stuff I don't need. Does anyone know of any cheap, fake winches out there? I don't plan on ever needing a real winch as I am one of those "if it gets stuck, pick it up" guys. |

If you want a fake winch just the 3racing winch for 27$ even if you never use it, it has the best appearance for the price. The proline one is nice but isn't very realistic looking. There are resin copies of the 3 racing and scaleoffroad winches and they cost just as much or more than the $27 for the 3 racing. so that's your best bet.

What's wrong with the "crappy" one from Hong Kong? For 12.99 it's much better looking than the pro-line, plus it actually works if you ever want to plug it in. Just about everyone uses them. I just got another 3racing winch last night on ebay for 18 bucks with shipping. Last edited by pardonmyn00b; 11-19-2009 at 02:30 PM. |
