Default Reccomend me upgrades

So right now my electric stampede has been out a week (busted shock) See vid http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=ViPmCRpnuvY

So now I need to order some new shocks among other things. I want advice on what kind of upgrades to go for. Im talking in regards to the build of my pede. Im going to spend about $200 at great hobbies

currnet upgrades:

- RPM sttering/caster blocks (front and back)
- Stronger servo
- aluminum shcok caps on front
- sidewinder system
- aluminum diff gear.

Things I'm considering:

- Traxxas Aluminum Steering links
- castle link
- RC screwz kit
- more RPM parts
- Dodge Ram nito body
- Imex tires http://imexrc.com/detail.aspx?ID=729 (these look sexy)
- or moabs http://www3.towerhobbies.com/cgi-bin...?&I=LXLDK4&P=M

What would you go for? The Imex tires or the moabs? What else would you reccomend? Also looking at best-bang-for-buck chargers.

I would also get a RPM front bumper for it. I have the masher 2k tires and they are great. For me it was between the Masher 2ks and the Moabs. Not gonna lie, the moabs look a heck of a lot better. I chose the masher 2ks because people said they were great tires and they didn't let me down. I got the RPM bully wheels for it. I've heard big bore shock caps are what you want, not the aluminum ones. Here's my Stampede VXL. I broke the main chassis and front bulkhead, so I got black ones and it looks quite a bit better.
