Default Turnbuckles rod ends?

hey i have a revo with the 5338R traxx Lightweight Aluminum Turnbuckles and i just noticed that i broke the rod end on one of them so i would like to know where a can buy some good none plastic ones? i would judt go to my local hobby shop if he had any revo parts but he doest and it takes a week or more for him to get parts. That is why i wanna buy them once of the net and be done with it.

thnx for your time

i do not recomment alum rod ends....exept for the shock rod ends......there is too much stress on the turnbuckles....alum end will break the turnbuckle itself....where the plastic one will give in first....and a lot cheaper....but it's YOUR ride:-)
