What is the measurment of the track centers of the Walthers Shinohara double crossover ? The Walthers reference book dose not show this measurement.

Exactly 2 inches, by my measurement.

Hey wait a minute, mine say’s 1 7/8"! Oh never mind, I was just using my made in China tape measure again. My Canadian made Stanley Tape measure say’s 2 inches as well. [swg]

Batman, hold onto that Chinese tape measure. Some of the double crossovers are manufactured in China and do measure 1 7/8" center to center. [(-D]

What are you saying Rich the Chinese are selling us short???[:-^]

Not necessarily, Brent. I’m just saying that you need to use a Chinese tape measure to measure a Chinese double crossover due to the short-comings in the Chinese manufacturing process. [:-,]

Come to think of it, I had to return my first double crossover as it had a short.[li][:-,][:-,]
