I'm trying to reinstall my TC rods with ES poly bushings. Trouble is, the bolt hole on the bushing end of the rod doesn't quite line up with the one on the bracket (by ~ 1/4"), unlike the mushy stocks, I can't "finesse these. Raising or lowering the LCA didn't help. The only way I figured to do this is to push the LCA back until the holes line up.

Question is, will this cause damage? Anyone else had this problem?

Yep. I had to use multiple pry bars and hammer...once I got it on the alignment rack all was good.
