The suspension on the XU1 differs in that the mounting for the upper control arm is lowered on the crossmember. I don’t have the actual measurement but you are probably correct in calling it an inch.
There are two sets of bolt holes which indicate that the lower one was drilled somewhere along the production line.
The 1970 service bulletin notes as important the the upper control arm is always reinstalled in the lower mounting position.
I would confidently assume that it was for handling purposes.
From what I have read this mod can be carried out on any LC/LJ Torana
but I would check on that before you pull out the old Black and Decker and start drilling a few holes.
This was disccussed sometime ago on this BB with some pretty good and informantive information. Perhaps someone with Search capabilities could locate it and post a link.
