I've never seen a derailleur mounting bolt with any other threading (not saying they don't exist).

Attached are photos of the bolt from the Crane derailleur and the derailleur cable guides.

Great photos. Thanks.
I just could not see how the cable routing bracket was routing the cable over to the front changer. I will install mine like yours and see if all works.

As for my bolt, I will be trying the measuringthing and thrading it in from the back of the hanger to check as described.

My Paramount is a 70000 series frame if that helps anybody. There may be a "G" in front of that number. I personally do not know when it was made but the guy I got it from in CA bought it new and he is about 85 now.
