Any pics? Pffffft, you don't know who you're talking to do ya?







Try to ignore that last piece of stock plastic (the orange). I've recently gotten the black alloy replacement for it and need to re-shoot some pics.

wow, the all black is really nice!

why the silver gearbox? where do you get your alloy parts? are you using gpm knuckles? is it 4WD? got the gpm diffs?

too bad for me, gpm doesn't make alloy lift parts.

I just ordered a rear gear box cover and heat sink in silver.

I don't NEED any other parts alloy parts for my F150 yet.

The motor gets hot and the rear gear case starts to crack at the top screw hole after changing out motors enough.

To answer your questions...

Silver gearbox because because I had no choice. I wanted ALL BLACK alloy and it took a while to hunt down the other pieces...But for the Gearbox Covers are just impossible to find (in ANY color), so when one of my sources did finally get it...Even though it was silver, I took it...I think it turned out nicely with the black.

- The Diffs I got from CJ (cjshobbies.net)
- The Black alloys I got from PDQ Mods ebay store
- The Silver gearbox covers I got from GPMDepot (gpmdepot.ecrater.com)

Every alloy part you see is GPM, including the Knuckles.

Yes, it's AWD/4WD.

I agree that it's a bummer GPM doesn't offer the Alloys in the Lifted config.

Well, get ready to WAIT for that Gearbox Cover. Unless GPM finally kicked out a few batches, they are VERY hard to come by right now.

The silver heat sink and gear box cover is coming from a US seller via first class. It should get here next week.

I didn't see the gear box cover at gpmdepot.ecrater.com
