Johns picture also shows the difference in the length from the flange screw to the center pin, tho the two flanges are not lined up to show it directly. Still... you can clearly see that the centers are nearly in the same spot with the same blue line intersecting them both. The newer flange shows it about 0.3 mm offset from the old one. But if you look at where the center of the flange screw hole intersects with the lines you see the purple line goes right through the center of the old flange screw hole but the newer flange is offset at least one whole blue line back. You mentioned you had a 17 mm knuckle to centerpin length Greg on the new parts. If I remember right Johns picture was just showing the difference between 16.3 and 16 mm lengths found from different manufacturers at different times. You say this is an old A. Just how old ? Whats the serial number on this ? Cheers RicB John, Awesome graphics! How do you do that? Greg P.S. along with other disparities I see the core to hammer flange center is slightly different too!
