Look at the taper of the knuckle joint holes.

Parts sources all seem to list a separate RH and LH part for the lower arms (21A1879 and 21A1881 respectively).

I've removed mine as part of a front suspension rebuild and they look identical and are stamped with both part numbers.

Both are cast with 21A1879/21A1881 markings.  Is there actually supposed to be a difference?  This is a 1976 Mini 1000.
