Maxx lower arm outer shock hole distance???

I bought the LST shock conversion kit for my Maxx and got the FLM Towers on but the shocks are too long, and don't match up the holes on the lower arm for mounting. I could drill a new hole, but I'm wondering if the FLM arms have the outer shock hole out farther. They mount only if I compress the shock. I did have to hack the upper arm but I don't care. I got the arms off Ebay, so they are a no name brand. So my ? is.

Can someone tell me the distance from the hinge hole to the outer shock hole on a FLM lower arm?

I have it marked with a red line in this pic:
