The exact dimensions of the difference isn't critical at this point.  But
the fact that it is different is important.  But you say if different
mounting holes are drilled into the frame it can work.  Does anyone else
have any different information on this?
With the information you give, the project sounds doable.  Now to decide if
it is worth while compared to all other options...  Thank you very much for
your information!

I'm not sure of the measurements offhand, but ISTR I drilled two holes about
5/16" in diameter and about 5/8" farther back than the existing holes.
Maybe
someone else can chime in here ?

It looks different, but bolts up with the same bolts.  The TR6 flange is
slightly farther back, but the TR3 driveshaft has enough travel to make up
for
it.
