My Hummer Evo, all Alloy'ed up!

Finally got my Alloys today. Kicked myself in the arse for forgetting the Rear Shock Mount though (hence the orange you see).

For Alloys, she's got:
- Knuckles, Shafts (CVD), Shocks, Arms...Basically EVERYTHING GPM has to offer for Alloys for the Xmods Evo Trucks. I wanted ALL Black, but unfortunately that wasn't going to happen, had to settle for Silver for the Rear Gearboxes and the Front/Rear Diffs (but nobody sees those, so no biggy with that).

...The only things left to Alloy-fy is The Rear Shock Mount (STUPID ME for forgetting this!!!) and the Front Gearbox cover.

I need to make some shims for the Shaft Bearings in the front though, there's a LOT of play there.

Here's the money shots...

Here's the breakdown of where I got the parts:

- Front and Rear Diffs, from CJ
- All Black Alloys, from PDQ Mods on eBay (he gave me a nice deal since I was buying a full set)
- The Silver Alloy Rear Gearboxes were from GPM Depot

Unfortunately I didn't weigh the chassis before switching everything out, so I don't have a hard figure to give for that. I had wanted to do that too, but I got so excited about getting the alloys on i forgot.

Grand total was ~$123 for all the Alloys I got.

As a follow up...I just got a response from PDQ Mods and they're sending out the Rear Shock mount today!

I screwed up, but these guys still took care of me (gave me a discount on the item) anyway. So I've got no problems recommending them if you're lookin for alloys.
