Does anyone have tower spacers that they want to sell or does anyone know where i can buy them as i dont have time to make them before the long weekend(workin away from home).
I was thinkin to raise them 25-30mm over standard height.
Thanks Paul.

Nop, rang them this morning and they only sell the kit($650).
I only need 2 front spacers they don't sell seperate.

What about some longer bolts and steel tubing cut the length (internal diameter of tubing to be same as diameter of bolt)
cheers

yeah could do that. I was thinking about 100mm exhaust pipe cut 25mm and 2 exhaust flanges top and bottom.Then weld them together.

looked at 4" exhaust flanges won't work. Not enough meat for the 4 bolts.
i'm getting some flanges made.Then i'll weld them together and bolt e'm in.

I'm pretty sure Sam just cut the tower and just welded tube in where the cut was made. Wouldn't that be easier than making flanges etc.
