ah, i see what you mean now Martin, sorry, last night as i mentioned i was tired .

for the measurement you are looking for i used the center diagram on page 38 fig 4.8.
in the center diagram using the dimensions of 2360 minus 2095 = 265 ( total length of bottom of chassis V length of bottom of chassis to forward face of U1 & 2 ) then subtract 75 from 265 =190

so the intersection of the front point of U1 U2 under the TR1 & TR2 rails is 190mm rearwards from the front face of the front frame part FF4,

make sure you take the 190mm from FF4 & not FF1 as they are 75mm apart due to the "lean back effect" of the whole front frame.

i hope this helps.

cheers
andy
