Sorry, i havent been able to make any progress, very busy with the wards at the hospital...
either way, for the legs, i used something very simple and easy to get: Armada Smokescreen, both balljoint and sockets are the perfect size and fits perfectly. First you need to remove completely the legs, cut the crotch so you can fit Smoke?s balljoints. Later, you need to cut the hips, just enough to glue smoke?s hips and keep everything in the same size to allo transformation
The main problem with Overload, is that everything needs to fit in the exact size to avoid problems during transformation
for the knees, i used some KO giant Gundam pieces wich i can hardly explain... however, after some thoughs, the RiD builders conection pieces could work just the same. First, you need to cut the knee pad from the knee connector. Basically, onces this is done, you get enough space to use the mentioned pieces to make the joint. Ill try later (but dont expect em soon...) to post clear pics of my mods to show the gundam joint and how could be made with other things
Now, for the shoulder, i found that RiD Grimlock crotch/hips works like a charm for both sides, you need to cut enough space inside the shoulder panel on the main body, to fit the hip socket. In the Upper arm, all you need to do is paste the hip balljoint from Grimlock (since is just a thin panel, no extra modification is needed)
Finally, for the elbows, at this point i used a combination of E Inferno?s, with bendy Prime knee joints cut and glued to the upper arm (i left the rotation intact from Prime)
