If you use alu-arms then you will break something that is more expensive and more difficult to replace than the plastic-arms.

ebay has them, the seller is 70lotus. I bought a set when I was making my K2 truggy, before I had the native kit. Good quality I think I paid 45 or so for all the lower 4 arms and hinge pins.

But will they break something more expensive if I get them. I can see what you mean as they take the shock and move it somewhere else. Im broke because of this car so I dnt want to spend more.

If an impact occurs where a plastic arm would have broken, then if you have an aluminium arm the force will either be applied on something else or the alu-arm will bend or break. Either of these cases will most likely be more expensive than replacing a normal plasticarm. I'll admit that the alu-arms look good, but they are simply not practical in buggy-racing. And you can normally get a whole bunch of plasticarms for what one set of aluarms costs.
