Angry Knuckle Problems!!!

Allright, almost ever since I had my Evolution Series XMod since christmas, I been having problems with my right rear knuckle. Ya know, the one right next to the gear box? Anyway, a few days ago, the screw just POPPED right out of the top screw-in . Now, NO screw will work with it, and its like its stripped or something. Can somebody please help? At this time, the car aluminum knuckles aren't out, and I don't want to modify the truck ones. PLEASE HELP ME!! I currently have a paper clip holding it on, and it works pretty well, auctually...

if you can try using a small enough nut and bolt
and go through it all with a nylon locking nut.
Then this way it would never fall off again.

god luck man!

Question buy where?

Thanks for that tip, but I was just wondering. Where can you buy those? Do you think that a screw and a nut from the stock XMod part baggie would work? If not, where would I buy these? thanks

screws and nuts, washers, etc.... for all types
of things...

you can find aluminum car knuckles on ebay.
they just aren't made by GPM, and by Hot Racing..
they look pretty nice though
