Default E maxx brushless FLM build!

So I've decided to build an emaxx to handle anything I can throw at it. I want it to be way faster than it needs to be and not break all the time. I'm not a really hard basher but I do beat on stuff a good bit. I ordered a used emaxx off eBay and it should be here friday. I want anyone and everyone to give me tips and opinions on this build as its my first big build. The maxx has some mods already and some on the way that I have ordered.

Mods already on the emaxx
-FLM aluminum towers
-Aluminium skids
-FLM aluminum bulk/hybrid diffs(these are new and he said only one is installed the other is still in the packaging.)
-RPM a-arms

Things I have ordered so far
-Proline trencher x mounted (got these yesterday).
-FLM extended chassis
-Custom motor mount for castle 1717 (stock traxxas X01 motor.)

I know I need shocks I'm thinking big bores with upgraded springs. As for axles I want mip. I'm gunna run it on the stock 2200 set up for now and order a 1717 soon. What other upgrades should I do? Any other suggestions in shocks (anything in the same price range as the big bores). Thanks for any advice! I'll post some pics when I get the truck.
