Default RE: Official HPI MT2 Thread

Well new to the forum and need help.
Took my mt2 3.0 out of hibernation and kinda detroyed it. Cleaned it up all nice and decided to adjust the carb. Well, before I could get it dialed in I caught a steel column with the L/F wheel, Took out the lower control arm. Luckily a store close by had the few parts needed to get it rolling again. After getting the carb set up pretty nicely I noticed the steering wasn't responding too well as the L/F tire slammed intoa snow plow. Well needless to say I need a few more parts now.
I tweaked the front of the chassis pretty good, enough where the steering was binding up.

Question. Am I better off getting all the parts needed from HPI or is the GPM chassis any good?

I was thinking of replacing the front C-hubs and knuckles with aluminum. Good or Bad Idea?

Where is the best place to get aftermarket parts from?

Sorry for the long post.
