Default Congrats to me!!! First shattered a-arm

You wont beleive what just happened!!! i was just outside with my car {not running the car} and out of NOWHERE comes one of the oxygen tanks i use for welding. That 90 pound oxygen tank was going like 20-25 mph and it just SMASHED right into my PARKED nitro evader......... OK OK what ever i ran into him but he shoulda seen me coming!! anyways now i have a busted a-arm and a cracked skid plate. When i got the car a week ago i decided i would upgrade parts as i broke them or as needed. The guy that runs my LHS is anal and hes of no help since i didnt buy my car from him{i got it off ebay}. He doesnt stock duratrax parts so im wondering what other a-arms {from other cars} fit my evader? If anyone can help with this or send a link to a site that shows interchangable parts id appreciate it!! I dont wanna order on the net cuz ill have to wait for the parts to get here and id like to have it fixed by tuesday. Anyways thanks in advance for any help.

p.s. Did anyone

www.toyhaus.com is correct

Aren't duratraxes parts covered by that stresstech warranty or is your evader more than a year old?
