Default Rear up rights

Been checking my rear up-rights and when I place the shock end in between there approx. 8mm difference, firstly is this right and if so are people just using spacers to make up the difference.

I was thinking the same, I was also thinking of welding the spacer to each side of the upright and blending it to try and make it look one piece.

I used a stack of washers... They're a bitch to sting back onto the bolt after adjusting the camber... Thanks for the hint, I'll try to get some spacers made.
