Yea I see the problem, here is a sugestion if you dont like it dont use it, first the rubber bushings have to go, you need a heim joint on that end, that ruuber acts like a spring so ditch it, you want the shock and spring to work, I have drawn a picture and included a link to a part, remember the spacer is made to what ever lenghth you need, we do a lot of race car fab work and this is what I would do, also remember to drill a hole in one of the plates and put the bolt through and weld the head side then weld to the spacer, Kevin
and the the two heim adapters are only like 6 bucks each, bilestein will be able to sell you heims for the other side,
