The arm 2206 engages a resection feature 2022 and connects the bone engagement feature 2208 to the resection feature 2022. In one embodiment, the arm 2206 includes an opening 2220 sized and/or configured to receive a bridge (e.g., posterior bridge 2062 and/or anterior bridge 2068) of a resection feature 2022 (e.g., a posterior resection feature 2022a and/or an anterior resection feature 2022b). In certain embodiments, the arm 2206 may engage the resection feature 2022 by sliding the opening 2220 over the bridge. Alternatively, or in addition, another part of the arm 2206 may slide down into one or more openings of a resection feature 2022. In one embodiment, the opening 2220 may include a closed end that includes two corners that meet at right angles. Similarly, a top surface of the bridge (e.g., posterior bridge 2062 and/or anterior bridge 2068) may be rectangular such that top edges of the bridge engage the two corners of the opening 2220 when the arm 2206 is engaged with a bridges as desired or, when the arm 2206 is fully engage with the resection feature 2022.
