I think its one of those things that has to be worked out experimentally to match alt movement to azimuth. I would err to the side of making the rocker box slightly taller to accommodate wider spacing of the alt pads, which can be moved closer later if need be. If so inclined, you could lop off the extra un-needed height too at that stage (but probably wouldnt).
