A different frame measured 20-1/2" on that length and the same 12" to the fork end. That was a white carriage and he said that one that was for his 982(?).
I think what I'll try tomorrow is to clamp a couple of flat bars on and extend them by that 1/2" and see if that helps resolve the issue.
If you would, could you measure from the fork pivot point forward to the mule drive attaching hole and let me know those results?
Also, are the forks on the WF units more of a 1/2 diameter hole versus a full deep U shape?
I will take pics of my fork with a tape measure on it showing the measurements in both the forward direction to the mule drive as well as rearward to the end of the fork and post them.
Thanks for the info and the assistance.
Lew. With Ironman's info, we may be closing in on a solution. Thanks for you assistance as well.

Here ya go, measurements are hole's center to center, hope it helps!
Total front hole to rear hole
NF 32"
WF 33"
Front hole to lift arm pivot point
NF 19.5"
WF 20.5"
Rear hole to lift arm pivot point
NF 12.75"
WF 12.75"
Front hole to lift link hole
NF front hole 23.5", rear hole 25"
WF 24
Rear hole to lift link hole
NF front hole 8.5", rear hole 7"
WF 9.25"
Shorter total length by 1" and pivot point being 1" more forward would leave you shy of the crossbar if you have measurements like the NF above.
