I assume you mean the entire mount then no, 2017 is keyed.

question on wheelbase,

I just want to make I am understanding the setup sheet correctly.

For the spacers, when marked 1 and 1, does that mean 1 on each side of the arm/ or 2 stacked up on one side of the arm?

just want to make sure, the way it looks to me, is like you are making the wheelbase longer for a technical track, and that doesn't make sense to me.

The boxes marked denote shims on one side of the arm. Play with it yourself, you'll see the wheelbase number go up and down depending on which are checked.

The wheelbase shims on the setup sheet refer to the shims in front of the arms only. So 1 & 1 is 2mm in front of the arm at that end of the car.
1 & 1 on both ends keeps the wheelbase the same, but moves both front and rear arms back 1mm from kit settings.

It's fine, just helps that little bit with rotation.
I have also used it outdoors when the car has seemed too stable and I want 'even more' rotation.

It's another one of those changes where you think it will be a big difference, but actually it never makes as much of a difference as you think.
