Thanks for all the replies and sorry for the confusion, the Pacemaker I have is new to me
and my only point of reference is my Anniversary Graphic, so when I took the Pacemaker apart
to CLA / repair I did not take note of how far the range finder arm travels, and where it rests
inside the camera body, I assumed that it was like the Anniversary Graphic. Which it is not
In comparing it to my Anniversary Graphic the Pacemaker arm did not clear the bed brace
which the Anniversary arm does, if the focusing yoke is racked out all the way the range finder arm
protrudes from the Anniversary body, the Pacemaker was stopping behind the bed brace and not
travel past the brace which I assumed that it was supposed to do.
Setting the arm to where it did travel past the bed brace ( like the Anniv. ) is where I got into trouble,
the bends on the end of the arm did not line up with the infinity adjust cam. Which had me
thinking that the bracket was wrong ( the Pacemaker I got has a dubious lineage ) measuring the
Anniv's bracket width sort of confirmed it. Which led me to asking my question here.
Anyway ...
Bottom line is that the Anniv's and Pacemakers had different RF arm travels and placement,
the Pacemaker's arm is supposed "hug" the inside of the camera body and come to rest
at the back of the bed brace when the yoke is racked all the way out.
