Need stanchion spacing dimensions for the front coupler lift bar on a 763 Hudson (18056) | O Gauge Railroading On Line Forum

I am in the process of upgrading the appearance of a 773 Century Club Hudson by adding the front movable coupler. Already have the necessary parts but am lacking the dimensions for the mounting holes for the coupler lift bar. Could someone be gracious enough to measure their engine? A dimension from the centerline of the chassis to the two stanchions would be perfect. Also, are they in line with the handrails/flagstaffs or slightly offset?

This may be helpful. Stanchions and Flagstaff seem to be in a straight line.

Joe;

Here are a few pics I hope will help. As John mentioned, the stanchions, handrails and flag holders are pretty much in a straight line.

EDIT: I updated the next two pictures to be a little clearer.

Paul and John,

Thanks, exactly what is needed. Time to break out the drill.
