pretty much the hole truck can be alum. The only parts that you cant get, is the motor/transmission area in the rear.

Nice 'pede! ...I guess you can never have enough spare bodies layin' around!

I like the HPI SS wheels too (have a set on my Evader, so they gotta be cool).

I don't have a 'pede, but thought I'd give a big [sm=thumbup.gif]

IMO the race truck bodies look terrible, but your paint jobs are all real nice.

Looks to me like a Pro-Line GMC Sierra (maybe for the T/E-maxx?). Most of the maxx bodies will fit your evader with a little persuasion... If you don't want to do the paint and cutting, Atomik makes some cool pre-painted and pre-cut bodies for the maxx trucks that you could fit on the evader as well.

True true...

Yea that's a GMC seirra body, quite frankly the only reason we did that body was becasue my brother has a silver GMC Z71, (not baja) Its pretty cool, so we tryed to make a replica. But they make a GMC body thats made for ST's unlike this t-maxx e-maxx one. The st is smaller and from what I have herd fits better! Thanks,

I like the maxx bodies, myself - they're a bit wider and give you more of a 'monster truck' look. ...or at least if you want a more realistic appearance, the fenders are a bit closer to the wheels. (a 6" wide body on a 13" wide truck just isn't realistic in my eyes!)

With the wider 'maxx bodies, your truck looks a lot more like a real truck that's been lifted and fitted with monster mudders. ...it's perfect

any 2.2 size tires will fit, I have pullers with hpi rims. Rember to get 4 rear ones, not 2 front 2 back. As for the body's some are marked 'pede' and 'st' those will fit the best, but the t-emaxx ones will fit with a lil 'overhang'

Mostly run them on loose surfaces like snow, dirt... and some off road serfaces like rocks, grass weed's, ect. They work on road, but they tend to make everything get hot. If you want to run your non-brushless pede you just need to cover the esc so no water get in, then you need to eather cover up or water-proof your sevo and receiver. Keep in mind that the pede is a light 2wd car and to get any kind of traction your going to need tire chain's or big pullers. Your motor is fine because its basicly waterproof anyway. Make sure when you get in from that bashing to dry everything off, then put it upside down to make sure the water gets out of every nook and crany. You might also think of getting some alum. screws from 'hex screws' because they wont rust. Best of luck,
