Lowering just the right side would relieve some stresses and the drive rods involved would flex. There would be unwanted stress but less than if nothing at all was done.I think the theory is, the lead screw, feed rod, clutch rod, and potentially LS reverse rod can flex a little. So by only lowering end bearing, you have relieved some strain, and thereby improved.
There is a horizontal guiding trench for both end bearing and qcgb that make adjusting higher or lower a complicated endeavor. As both are aligned and held in place with that trench.
Something like a South Bend, both end bearing and qcgb are bolted to underside of bed way, and can lowered with shims a bit more simply.
A less than perfect solution but we have to live with those sometimes.
