I had a variety of rocker studs on hand last year, various lengths, and they all had virtually the same shank (unthreaded area) length.

I bought two packs of ARP 200-8747 washers, to use between the nut and the pivot ball of the rocker. These have a 0.437 i.d. (fits nicely over a 7/16" stud) and a .875"o.d. (so it is slightly small than the pivot ball). The thickness is 0.120" which gives almost 2.5-turns more adjustment.
