The other option is to just replace the lower control arm endlink mounts and place them in the correct location. It shouldn't be too difficult, as they appear unpainted. In my opinion, it would be an upgrade to move away from a stud mount and move to a double shear.
Sometimes parts from the same manufacturer don't play well together either. Making the mounts work as intended (plumb) is the way to go if @ all possible.

Spohn Performance has sway bar end links that allow connecting the two different type mounts. Sometimes you have to be creative as they're not an 'application specific' item here....

Building a small, high rpm engine with the perfect bore, stroke and rod ratio is very impressive.
It's like a highly skilled Morrocan sword fighter with a Damascus Steel Scimitar.....

Cubic inches is like Indiana Jones with a cheap pistol.
