600Kg Upgrade Kits - Does it really fit?

Does it seem strange to anyone other than me that the factory supplied( in my case factory fitted) 600 Kg upgrade spacers are of a thinner aluminium section than the clevis on the strut which straddles the two wing attachment plates that the upgrade plate is rivetted in between. The result is that the attachment plates have a lot of stress on them at the closest rivet on the upgrade plate. It feels like the upgrade plate should be the same thickness as the strut clevis.

When I fitted mine they were quite tight so no gap

 

Mine are pulling on the retaining rivets, so no risk of a gap. If they pop the heads off the rivets I will use them for a pattern to make a couple of thicker ones.
