When I called them yesterday morning, I got the same CSR on the phone and he said "Oh, I remember you, sorry I didn't call you back on Friday but I did talk with our engineer and he doesn't know what would be causing this narrowed ball joint width".

I'm no suspension engineer, but I can tell you this. There is only ONE WAY that the lower ball joint width is narrower and that is if the control arms themselves are narrower...Period!

Heidt's makes those control arms in two widths - standard and 5/8" narrower. If you got narrow ones instead of standard you'd be okay as long as the LCAs and UCAs were all narrow ones and you were okay with your wheels moving inboard 5/8" on each side.
