The innovative STORM Top Housing from RED Winches offers a simple yet powerful upgrade for serious winch users. Designed to convert your standard single motor 8274 winch into a much faster and more powerful system, the STORM housing is built from solid billet for ultimate strength and durability.
Driven by customer demand, the STORM’s unique design also allows integration with the RED Winches air brake system. This enables your 8274 to stop instantly, matching the performance of our premium electric winch range, such as the Hornet2. You can purchase the STORM housing today and easily upgrade to the air brake system later.
