Those are the from the World's Front End Kit that were designed to be used with the RC10T front nose piece. Looks like you are using the stock RC10 nose plate- what's the total width in this configuration?

those are the team arms, essentially the same length as the stock 'wide' arms or andy's arms. hella hard to find NIP and white, that's for sure.

Hmmm...they look identical to my World's Arms. My World's arms are definitely longer than the stock "wide" arms. I examined last night when I was cannibalizing my RCPS titanium hardware for another project. I think when I measured the RPM World's arms they were 67-68mm and the "team arms are approx. 58mm.

the worlds arms should have two shock mount holes, and also have a wider inner arm mount due to the truck bulkhead:

but yes, I can relate to the confusion, it took a while to get it all straight for me.

Good eye- didn't catch the shock mount holes. Thx!

Same with the rear RPM arms as well. Quick way to tell they are Worlds length is if they only 2 lower shock mount holes.

Will update pics.
