You could probably get away with 1” adaptors but you need to have the studs below the face of the spacer. A 1.25” spacer/adaptor will give you a full 1/2” clearance from the stock tie rod.
Bill, of course that is the rumor that I had heard also and that is what prompted me to question a half dozen manufactures of adaptors and not one of them has seen a problem if they are installed and maintained properly. Several of them said that their adaptors are used by OEM’s. If they were such a liability I’m sure that the manufacturers would be flooded with lawsuits.
