I'd drill the 4 holes in the drop plate at the desired vertical spacing, (and move them fwd if desired) then put a spacer between the plate and the frame which would allow you to mount the brackets to the drop plate on the inside surface, maintaining the exact same mounting width between the frame/brackets.
2 plates, 2 spacer blocks would allow you to use the existing brackets and position them precisely where you'd like. Up/down or In/out.
IF they didn't stick down too far ..... but it doesn't look like they would.
