Moving Extruder to new dock location

Has anyone moved the physical position of a print heads to another mounting point along the rear rail? Long story short, I have a 2 toolhead XL, and I really would like to have the tools still be "Tool 1" and "Tool 2" for the software, but I'd like Tool 1 in "dock 1" position and Tool 2 in "dock 3" position (the center of the printer). The purpose is to space out the toolheads for a clever project. I tried to manually calibrate Tool 2 in position 3, but the printer gave me an out of range warning. Any help would be greatly appreciated.

Thanks,

Drew

RE: Moving Extruder to new dock location

Reviving this old thread, but I was doing a little google searching for my own little clever mod and had the same question. 

Any of the prusa mods care to comment?
Is it possibly something we can get changed in the firmware?
I know you can always cut the solder pad and upload custom firmware, but I'd rather not do that for something so "simple"
