As Mr Ed says they are scorpion arms used on many Kyosho 2wds of the time including Scorpion, Tomahawk, Turbo Scorpion, Assault and Advance.
Die casting quality varied a lot...yours look like to be in very good condition and original manufacture...that said they are fairly easily and cheaply available online.
I'm biassed but it looks to me like you have the makings of a tremendous platform for a Kyosho Assault restore/project
I would like to thank Rizzo and Scollins for the idea. I've been working on this for about 2 weeks now, mostly waiting for the rear tires off Ebay. It was a very scratched-up chassis, little sanding and cutting added the paint plus spare parts from...

I was going to start disassemble and clean my 10T when I had a thought. Do I have enough spare parts to put another tub together? The answer of course was yes. It may not be pretty or complete(yet) :D But it has some cool stuff on it.Nothing was...

Even though this is technically a buggy, I'm doing a truck conversion with it.
The plan is to build as much of it from my parts/junk boxes as possible. Of what you see here, the transmission ($40 parts trans)and rear control arms are the only...

Lookin' good! At first I thought this was gonna be a straight 10T build but it's more of an old school conversion! I fondly remember the truck conversion wars from bitd. I snapped up an Eagle right when they came out. Looking back on it now, all it...
I had a bunch of spare parts from my days owning many clods, so I decided to build one. Only parts I purchased were esc, servo and wheels (why are they only available in chrome?).

Front & rear arms, steering spindles, castor blocks and rear hubs. I buy these spares for any new buggy regardless of what it is.
Only additional thing I would suggest is titanium turnbuckles. Bent mine on the first race day.
Heres the second car I worked on this weekend. Its assembled using a bunch of aftermarket spare parts I had laying around. The only AE parts are the 6gear tranny, bulkhead, shock collars, dog bones, body post and front suspension mounts. The rest of...
