I don't think one would have to go to such a wide angle/stance in order to achieve the load balance required. Sure there'd be a bit of tilt but if you watch it while begining the lift you could set it back down and adjust.
I was also thinking that the eyebolts would be just short enough to go through the countertightening nut, washer and adequately unto the tee nut so as to leave clearance from the bottom of the slot.
Also, if employing one of those screw type load leveling devices such as used with engine hoists the angle of the chains (or whatever) would be further reduced.
