The tolerances get stacked up in the wrong direction.
The last thing you want to do, is to strip out the nut in the sub-frame. You will have to drop the sub-frame, cut the top of it to get to the captive nut in it to change it out. I was looking at this for chits and giggles when I did my sub-frame bushings.

^^^^ this. I installed an Energy Suspension bushing first and it didn't have the clearance for the extended stud boss on the Z1 cover. Whiteline bushing fit MUCH easier.
