Just get some round steel and drill a hole in it.

25mm is a big move, usually 15mm is around normal

Bit more complex than that, you need to space the bush and the lock nut.

Binskins 4wd centre in Wauchope make a complete kit to move the front diff forward.

you can only go about 12mm as well, or you run out of thread on the radius arm.

If in Vic we can machine a set up for you. The max you will get is about 12mm as wendle said.
