Default Need a Measurement Please

Hey Guys,
Anyone happen to have a park brake shoe anchor pin handy?
I need the overall length. The '78 is in the paint shop so I don't have one handy. I have a box here with 50 or 60 different anchor pins and I'm sure I got the right one in there but not sure on length.
If you can help me out, it would be much appreciated.
Cheers, Greg

I've got a pair of them in the spare parts bin and VanSteel installs the one that has to go into the backing plates before they are assembled so these should be the right ones for the vette
