trek 800 bb spindle?

Hi,

I'm looking to determine a replacement crankset for a Trek 800, so I'm looking for the BB spindle length in order to find a compatible replacement. I'm trying to track it down by model year by the lettering/logo on the frame.

The logo is an older lettering style that I don't see that often; in fact I can't even find an example image of that lettering on BF or the web in general. I've looked on Bikepedia but still cannot find the example. The existing crankset is a Shimano Altus mountain triple 42/34/24 with 170 mm arms, although it is not clear whether or not these are original equipment.

Unfortunately I don't have a pic of the bike.

According to Bikepedia, the 1996 model used a 116mm spindle. Any insights to share?
