I do that type of fab work strictly on mock-up, angles and principle - no specs or measurements. The principle is the bars need to run pretty close to parallel the leafs in order to not bind. You want 90 degree angles or close to it on the fulcrum points for maximum leverage. Measurements to me means I take a rough measurement, cut, tack, mock up, grind, maybe cut again, re-cut, grind some more and re-tack until it looks right, then finish weld. Like I said in that original thread, I ended up taking them down and lengthening the bellcranks about 3" after they turned out to be too short on the first try. I'm a systems engineer, not a mechanical engineer. 
Sorry, but I'm not mass producing this stuff.
