that makes the spacer now used on the smaller bolt, that uses a nut on back, a little larger than the bolt, right? you could get a bigger bolt and nut for the spacer, right?

Yes if you wanted to, but once you tighten it up it is good.. I might think about putting a bigger bolt in there, but I really don't think it is needed..
