upper A-Arm stud issues

I'mn currently in the process of putting tube A-arms on my '67 C-10. I have replacement studs which attach the upper A-arm to the frame mount. The original studs are slightly smaller in diameter than the replacements. The original arms had a fair amount of clearance and the new arms have even more play on the old but fit pretty well on the new set. If I drive out the old studs it looks like I will need to drill the holes out to fit the new bolts.

Can I leave the old studs in place or will the excessive clearance cause problems even after everything is snugged up?
