KE70 and AE71 steering arms are interchangeable between themselves.
RT132/XT130, early model Celica/Supra, etc. arms are different strut bolt pattern to KE70/AE71, but the same amongst themselves I think.
AE86 is also different to KE70 and AE71... logically I would think it to be the same as Corona/Celica/Supra etc. as above.
All these cars share the same ball joint (Powermax p/n PBJ45) so steering arms can be changed to suit your selected strut. Be aware of:
> Bump steer arising from the resulting alignment of tie rods and lower control arms, and
> Steering ratio, a function of steering arm length, and
> Ackerman angle, a function of tie rod joint positioning relative to strut bolt alignment (good image on Toymods somewhere to illustrate, search it I'm too tired )
