Because the heim joint is not attached to the center of the plug, fore and aft loads will simply rotate the plug in the torsion tube, without transferring the load. All the load will be carried by the 4 bolts.

A good point,but the plug is pressed into the torsion tube.
So I don´t think the plug will rotate because the screw will lock the plug in right direction.
The screw is 10mm above center so the leverage forces may be small in this perspective?
