Yeah the length of the TB is the parallel part only. Not including splines or tapered sections.

Re: Lever length, I thought the same, except to the centre of the contact patch, then my Dad straightened me out. The lever length is only to the balljoint because it pivots there, the spindle/upright is not an extension of the lever. It's why different offset wheels don't affect spring rates.

I'd be interested in your calculations to see if we get the same answers.

Cheers,
Scott
