An actuator arm assembly for a rotary disc memory drive which comprises a pivotally mounted actuator member and an arm stack unit mounting individual transducer head flexure assemblies. The armstack unit is connected to the actuator member at two locations and requires clamping only at one of the two locations to secure the connection at both locations. The armstack and transducer head flexure assemblies are removable as a unit by unclamping the armstack at that one location, effecting release at both locations, permitting armstack removal as an aligned assembly unit including the transducer head flexure assemblies, circuits and electrical connectors.
