Any help will be greatly appreciated. Thanks Hmmm... No idea about a factory spec, but on my 70RR they measure about 4 inches from the bumper.. Here is a pix of my RR.. Just my $0.02...

It also allows some adjustment fore/aft depending on tolerance stack-up, though I doubt the factory guys sweated that detail. On my original '69 RR, the tips are about 1.25" proud of the bottom corner of the bumper where it folds under/forward. I say "about" because they're not exactly the same; left one measures 1.125", right is 1.25". What's odd is that over the last 50 years, I've seen some that aren't level, but clocked at an angle, as though either the tab or hanger were twisted. Some of those were on new or untouched cars.
