That's correct.

That's not correct.

I don't follow you here, Dave. The Moss catalog/website seems clear to me that
the two different arms are not "just flipped upside down". Rather the right
front arm is the same as the left rear arm (661-010) and the right rear arm is
the same as the left front arm (661-020). Two different arms on each side, but
the same two arms make either a RH or a LH set. The result puts the fulcrum in
the same relative location on both sides, as 661-010 always goes on the outside
of 661-020.

TRF has them listed. Or you could buy used, but beware that they sometimes
crack.
