Does the lock screw even perform that function?

Looks to me that it's just a key to ensure both eccentrics turn together.

Well, first time looking at this thread.

First let me say, WOW.  You, Sir, have mad skills.  And you are what, 20 now?  21?  Amazing.  You have a bright future ahead of you.

This looks to be an amazing project, and I can't wait to see the finished product.

Oh, and how is your knee?

looks like the flat part of the axle needed some kinda of flat spot on the eccentric to lock into

Its just to keep the axle from spinning when I torque the nut on the other side.

Im not worried about that, but im trying to design a suspension linkage part to be strong and light.   Do you have any modeling or stress anaylsis software?

Calipers?  The two on the right are on the same Y plane, and you could measure the one on the left to each of the 2 on the right and trig it out to get it's location in relation. . .

When I've had to measure holes on different planes I used wooden dowels, inserted them and cut them to the same plane, then measured their centers. Always been precise enough for me.
Every time I meet a new group of your friends that understand you and your weird sense of humor I'm a little more amazed that there are other people in the world like you that lived through childhood - My loving girlfriend

I rubbed them with graphite then put a piece of paper on them and transfered it to the paper. 

Then I can measure the centers with calipers on the paper.

im gonna make a set of plates to test the bolt holes and to index them with a stainless rod. 

Then Ill make the real plates and linkage mount. This is the suspension engine mount for the unit pro link setup.
