Thanks for correcting my error, Randy - I should not have relied on memory there.

Nope - longer arms are the fronts - that angles the vertical link backwards to give the 3 degrees of castor.  And Dave you will need TR4 trunnions with the castor built in to finish this.

The longer arms are the rears.

I think the letters are on the shorter (front) arms.

The letter faces up. L up on the left side, R up on the right side.

I am converting my 3A to 4A front suspension using 4A upper A arms.  I bought them from a breaker, and as i clean them up i notice that 2 of the 4 arms have L on one side and R on the other. Yes, left and right, but beyond that I don't understand.   And the other 2 A arms have no marking

How do i install these A arms?
