Dunno what is different on ender 3's after v2, but on my bed slingers I used a klicky probe to get the measurement for each screw position, and just hard mount something like ~10mm or whatever it took to clear the motor mount stainless cylinder spacer and nylock nut to mount the bed. Then 0.1mm stainless shims added to the spacer stack as needed until the probe numbers are as close to the same as possible. IIRC each screw is torqued to 8nm or so using a small torque wrench. I think I did 6 or for things threaded into the aluminum but the bed should be fine higher if they are all the same. This should make the bed mesh stay mostly the same for longer so I run a really ridiculous subdivision on the mesh since it doesn't seem to need updating.
