Default distance between lower links at frame end?

i've noticed that a lot of companies, with aftermarket skid plates, have the lower links closer together than a stock axial skidplate. but with a four link, and trying to get as much triangulation as possible. why wouldn't they put the lower links as close together as possible? i'm currently in the process of building a tuber, and trying to design my own four link, instead of copying the axial chassis plate mount locations. i've been running numbers in the 4link calculator, to my dimensions, and im seeing a greater benefit the closer they are. therefore where my question comes in as to aftermarket skidplate design.thanks, and happy thanksgiving.

I make the double tri skids for AX10 in 3/8" thick Delrin. And there are a few more vendors that do too.
