The original cast arms are having problems with hidden cracks and breaking on landing. This causes and near total loss of rudder control. You can see on the two arms that are bare Aluminum each have a crack. The crack at the fork is from over tightening the bolt and crack at the bushing is the most common and is from age.
The new FAA-PMA'd arms come ready to install. Painted, bushings and bearings installed. They can be seen on the website. yesteryearaviation.com
