[TR] TR6 - Help diff-pin measurment

[PeterSchop at aol.com]

I'm in the process of replacing the front set of differential mount pins  and 
brackets on my '69 TR6. I have already removed the pins and brackets and  
will be welding the new ones on in the morning. I need to know what  the  d
istance is from the bottom of the bracket to the taper on the threads of the  pin. 
Also, what is the distance from the bottom of the diff bridge to the  bottom of 
the pins?
 
The ones I took off appear to be 1 3/4". Can that be correct? I'm putting  on 
poly mount bushings. When I put the two bushings together, they are 1 7/8"  
plus the thickness of the washer and the diff yoke bracket. I do not think that 
 the poly bushing will compress. This measurement is critical. If it is too  
small, I will not be able to put the nut on and if it is too great, I will 
have  free play. 
 
TIA

PS... Please answer direct as I am in digest  mode.
