You haven't lived, without these parts installed!
Once on, you will go tenths of MPH faster
You will feel like a new person! 🙂
Both steering arms just let you adjust the height of your outer tie rod end so that you can play with bump steer.
Their mounting will be obvious once you look at early Spit or GT6 uprights.
They have a cute little window in the upright that is opposite the lower bolts for the caliper mount.
The spring retainers are just that.
Top ones allow you to mount the typical damper without the rubber bushings.
"Better" no-spring damping and no off-axis torque on the damper rod.
Bottom ones are just retainers for dampers with eye-style mounts.
Part #9 in the attached.

If you are not doing very serious racing or auto-x, then I would not bother.

Subject: [Fot] Parts Bin Questions
I have some parts in my bin that I acquired when I bought a Spitfire and I am seeking information on them.
I have two sets of steering arms (pictured). One set is aluminum and the other set is drilled for heim joints. I would like to know your opinions on using them, good or bad, and if you have images of them installed that would be a huge help.
Right now I just have the stock setup for the steering rack so I am interested in what the advantages would be for using the parts shown.
