Could a guy take them apart and shim them solid? The factory hydraulics, that is.

Yes you can. A thin wall spacer won't add any weight as your ditching the check valve, ball, spring, etc. Solid spacer not needed. Weigh a stocker and then gut it to only the seat. Don't even need oil in it if the roller is not pressure fed.
