What the thread found

• The arm-to-vest connection should be purchased rather than fabricated, either used or new from the manufacturer.
• A post adapter can be designed in two parts: a clamp that holds arm posts of various sizes while floating between the end block shelves, with Delrin or Nylon flanged bushings to maintain centering.
• The manufacturer offers a ready-made arm post that is sized to fit both Ultra arms and gimbal types like EFP, 3A, and Pro models.
• Using multiple standard-length arm posts with an adjustable adapter allows flexibility for different operator heights without requiring a single custom post.

Depends on

• The specific part number mentioned may no longer be in stock or available.
• The two-part adapter solution requires fabrication knowledge and appropriate materials.
• The ready-made post solution sacrifices adjustability for convenience and speed to deployment.
