Just wondering if anyone can help me out?

I'm working on installing a rear axle from an '73 1800 into my '65 122. Unfortunately, pre-67.5 122/1800 have a different rear axle than the post-67.5 122/1800. One option I have is to modify the two sets (the '73 1800 and the '65 122) of trailing/torque arms to fit the axle to the body of my car.

I have several sets of torque arms for the pre-67.5 models, but they are fairly woren out. I have noticed that the 740's have a similar item as part of the front suspension.

I was wondering if someone had a 740 front control radius arm out of a car and can take some measurements of the front section for me?

This is the dimensions of the 122 front section:

as you can see-
-the shoulder is 2.25" long
-the disc is 2" wide
-the threaded section is 7/8" long by 1/2" thick
-the shoulder is 3/4" thick

Here is a picture of the 740 front suspension for reference:
