if you dont extend the bolts/whatever, you have taken 1 inch of engagement off the threads, to me that sounds scary... :shock:

the fixed studs should be ok, just, but use loctite and nyloc nuts. I through bolts in the front just replace them anyways.

Why would you BL 1"? Why not just got 2" so you can get 31s under it?
