1954 Truck, Mustang II, Caster Issue

hi,

I am putting a Mustang II front end on a 1954 C3100. There appears to be an clearance issue with the T bolts and how much movement the top arm has with the top shock mount with the parallel slots. The T bolt hole in the upper arm only allows the top ball joint to move towards the front on the Pass Side and towards the back on the drivers side. As you can see by the pic's the tbolt hole in the upper arm aligns itself with the slots moving the ball joint toward the front of the truck but when you try to push it to the back, those tbolt holes do not align with the slots anymore so you get very little if any caster adjustment in that direction as shown in the pics with the bolts on. Everyone including the guy I bought these from says thousands are sold this way... so what am I missing.. Thanks for the help..
