RE: truggies
To make a truggy, it is more than just putting a truck body and Mt wheels on it. You have to adjust your gearing. You want at least 4.15 gear ratio. Otherwise you will just be toasting your clutch and clutch bell. For your Hyper you could probably steal a few things from a gs sut. If you don't want to run 17mm Dominator wheels, you can get the sut wheel adapters these will let you run maxx size wheels. Maybe the sut body mounts. Also not sure but maybe try a storm center diff, or see if you can get a bigger spur gear for your diff. The make sure you fill your diffs with diff fluid, otherwise your power will always unload to the front wheels. I run 50,000 in the center, 30K in the front, 5k in the rear.
Hope this helps a little, like the others said, do a search and you should find some threads about this.
