my apologies Aiden , I missed this post

As Josh has said, its better to pack out the gap with spacers, its a common situation that most builders come across ( me included ).

If you altered the jigs you may well create a problem for the setup of the suspension / ackerman angle , which has been designed into the Roadster at the given measurements by Chris Gibbs,

sorry for late reply to your question.

cheers
