The stud allowed the lower shock eyelet to rotate slightly forward (I only moved my LCA .75"), and the lower bolt went right in with no issues. It fit just like stock.

It might become an issue if you go more than .75". Maybe?
One of the questions is ".75" from what point?" Seems the factory arms have the indexing hole 1.5" from the end and aftermarket shafts are drilled at 1.25". From what I remember your shafts were factory so your index location should be at 2.25" from the shaft end correct?
