The bottom ones are Kyosho Triumph rear arms. The upper ones are Kyosho Ultima Pro front arms.

triumph and ultima pro2 arms are very much alike. It's more likely to be a set of the same car, but then again, richie knows what he's talking about...

LOL! My memory is so bad, I actually got off the chair and checked. :)

So, my memory was correct. Triumph front arms have a funny little notch (that looks kinda weak, in my opinion) where the shock mounts, plus they are not as thick as the ones in the picture. The Ultima Pro's rear arms have a mini-turnbuckle to adjust rear toe while Triumph arms have the odd grub screw/hole combo.

The rears arms allows some minor toe in adjustment but they are not the strongest. Be careful for runners :)
