Glen, get me some drawings. I know someone with a CNC mill. No promises, but that would solve your off-center hole issue.
Honestly, you'd be better off doing the flipped calipers or the 5/8" spacers, but the true life is in the journey, not the destination, so send me some drawings!
i'll be getting some measurements this weekend
