The one bad thing about Arrma is that almost nobody makes aftermarket parts for them. I can't find any for the Granite.
RPM, GPM, and Hot Racing are the main ones.
check out Jteamhobbies, RC planet, Asiatees, and amain for upgrade parts. was able to find aluminum hub carriers, shock towers, body mounts, etc. and shocks

i guess i dont really know how much broader the aftermarket parts support for the 4x4 traxxas models are to compare.
also just remember, dont use Aluminum A-Arms, they take larger hits than plastic, but they dont flex so all the force that hits them goes straight through to the chassis/bulkheads.
