I assumed the same as Ian, that is, cleaning them up and polishing them would show up any surface cracks. But have a look at these steering arm photographs in the "Mechanical Drawing" section of this site. This arm looked 110% but having it X-rayed showed up a deep flaw BELOW the surface. I ground several millimetres away so you can now see the actual crack. The Seven I drive also uses an untested arm but it does concern me. So as Barry says were too from here??
