It depends on the size of your light, to the length of your bracket.

The measurement most people use is 120mm, for some reason i cut mine at 80mm and got away with it (as my lights are a slightly smaller diamater)

Hope that helps a little.

is that 120mm from the center of the bolt mount hole or is that 120mm for just the "shaft" not the round bit with the bolt mount in.

I used 120mm from the center of the hole to the edge of the chassis just above the upper shock mounting bracket,mount the stalk on the side of the chassis rail as this way you don,t need to cut the nose cone;) , this then should give 90cm between the holes of both brackets.
