Either the photos are out of sync with each other or my eye is off, =
today. It looks to me that the knuckle is just a tad larger than the =
original.=20

Yes it is, but only a tiny bit and I'm not so sure its not just that the =
new knuckle is round an not flattened.

AND, it looks like the flange center to knuckle molding center is =
shorter on the new one. If that is the case then, the new shanks won't =
work unless you move the knuckle out about 1mm - 1.5mm. That's what it =
appears to me to be the case.
Regards,
Joe Garrett, R.P.T.

Actually, in this case, the knuckle is actually a little bit farther out =
(maybe a half-millimeter) from the hammer rail than the original. The =
flange center to knuckle is the same, but the flange screw hole to =
flange center is the half millimeter further apart on the new part. That =
is an Abel shank/knuckle/flange. The Renner is the same way.
