Default First time build.

New to RC world and I'm addicted lol. for my first truck i decided a scratch based 1/10 6x6 build. pacific roughneck is what im going for. aluminum c channel frame with styrene/pvc, cab/body. i want to have multiple winches mounted behind the cab with a decent amount of pulling power. any suggestions or how to's other than the winches you can buy? thnx in advance.

Do you want the winches to look like winches, or can it disappear into a fairlead somewhere so you can go stronger?
