Probably easier to waterproof motors/ESC by getting a boat replacing the propeller with wheels.

Plasti dip is your friend!! Honestly it has been very easy to do. Splash proofing would be very easy, but I want to sink the truck!!!

Lrp make waterproof escs, putting the rec in a balloon is easy, traxxas makes waterproof servos. I waterproofed my own stuff cause I am cheap.

Packing the tranny and axles with grease takes a little time. Plus I use bushings in the axles, and sealed bearings in the tranny. I will run it a bit and then take it apart and see how it does...
