I was able to remove the tabs I had bonded on to the old upper arms. (350 deg F for 15 minutes softens the Araldite sufficiently to break the bond) Cleaned the old Araldite off the tabs and gave them a good scuff sanding along with the attach area of the new upper support arms. Mixed a tiny batch of Araldite 420 A/B and added some milled fiber for body and strength, applied it to the tabs and bonded them to the new upper arms. Used spring clamps to hold them together till the bond cures. Measured the new lower arms for the holes and drilled the upper holes with the 3/16" drill. Drilled the lower holes with a #21 drill and tapped the holes with a 10-32 tap. Screwed in the ball attachments with some Loc-Tite and put it all aside to set up.
