Could the holes in the cap be so tight that the studs are causing the cap to lean over? I would try a stock set of bolts. If the stud to hole clearance was close and the hole bores were not machined square it could force the cap out of position.

I agree, with studs sometimes you need to clearance the bolt holes to get the caps to seat properly & with #3 being the thrust bearing it's more critical...
