Getrag 245: What is the shifter input rod length in neutral?

[AceAndrew]

Hoping someone here on the FAQ knows this little piece of important information, because I do not!.  Does anyone know the shifter input rod length with the transmission in neutral (for the Getrag 245 and possibly the stock 242)?  I'm trying to verify it before making a selector rod and platform.

 

Merry Christmas

I can get that measurement for you today.  I'll do both 245 and 242.  It's the length in the attached pic, correct?

[AceAndrew]

Yes, that'd be perfect.  Thank you.

With the transmission affirmed in neutral and a flat edge held against end of the shaft, the measurement from the face of the transmission to the end of the shaft is 73mm.  

 

I'll have to get to my storage to measure the length on the 242.
