the old ones have the snap ring on both sides. when i did mine i broke the old snap rings off, pulled out the old races, loaded the thing with grease, pressed the new races in, then put the new snap rings on.

mine were both solid, and i was told the old arms i had were among some of the first RE SF arms ever sold. maybe TNT has their own shit on your arms.
