I did the same thing. But I used a slide through sleeve and clamp at the Tee where the rear attaches to the scissor so that it separates into two pieces.....
There is a washer fitted as a knob so I can adjust the height from both sides of the jack, and on the bottom leg on one side is another washer as a knob. Turning that tightens the clamp on the centre arm and allows for an adjustable length. (Some of my rifles have sling studs in different places....)
