Default boddy dolly: am I missing something?

When looking at the dimensions of the dolly as documented, height is identical all around.
When looking at the dimensions of the frame (hence the body), the radiator support is below the body mounting holes (even more when the mounting rubbers are taken into account)
Am I missing something?

Your not missing anything. This body dolly is not a custom fit just something to set the body on.

Yeah, I agree. Mine was a very nice snug fit, some mounts lined up and sat flat, but it wasn't really important.
