Replacement part was close but no cigar
The replacement part was not exactly like the part I was replacing. (and yes I rechecked the model number) It fit, but the mount point was different than the original. I had to modify the mount point. After that all worked.

The lower boom assembly is attached with 2 screws using an allen wrench the broken assembly was removed and the new lower boom assembly was attached and screwed in. This was a very simple repair. This trimmer has seen alot of use but still works great.
