The Steering Arms I have are clearly marked '6540'.
So this is one of those cases where we ought to have an 'A' and a 'B' part?
(That is, if anyone ever models the part with the pin socket connection?)

This is probably true.  However, the "Technic Steering Arm Large" that
came with the 8880 Supercar comes in two versions: The first year (or
so) of production, the steering arm has a cross axle hole.  Later
versions had the technic pin socket, like your version.  So the part in
LDraw is correct; you simply have a different version of the part.

I don't know if both versions of the part had the same number, though.
Perhaps the LDraw version should be renumbered?  Anybody know if the
original "Technic Steering Arm Large" has the number 6540?
