Fastener Offset?

Hi everyone, I am building an assembly. I am using the built-in fasteners from F360. Is there a way to offset a fastener?

After the fastener is placed a Rigid Joint is applied by the application.  You will want to edit this joint and add an offset to the Z-Axis.

Okay so, I figured something out. I made a plane at the base. I extended the face with an offset and set the thickness to .005. I added the bolt and then was able to select the face after selecting the thread and then I was able to delete the extra body I created but I think there should be an easier way to do this?
