Fig 7. Installation complete - arm at LP lead in groove location - outboard view. The assembly was designed to be positioned high, primarily to free up space for the cueing lever to still be accessible. Also for that same reason AND to keep the far side away from areas where I'll be lifting the outer LP ring clamp on and off, both arms of the bracket were clocked around clockwise, parallel to the armtube. Nominally balanced design is maintained. Riding on the horizontal motion direction bearings ONLY, all that counts is mass amount and horizontal distance from the axis for arm lateral eff mass enhancement. (only downside is that the bracket covers up the cool SME model number graphics on the arm tube - Oh NOOOO!!)
