Plenum Spacer Kit - Strut Spacers

[Ceejay29]

Hi Jez,

 

I purchased the DE spacer kit from you a fair while ago now. Since replacing the OEM strut brace with an aftermarket one I have noticed that it now fouls the U/S of the bonnet. I think the answer is to reduce the height of each alloy spacer you provided in your kit, thus reducing the height of the brace. Ideally I would replace them or I can try to grind them down (however this may not be accurate).

 

My question to you is; Do you know the height of the alloy strut spacers you provide in your kit and do you have any idea where I could find replacements?

 

Apologies the car is in the garage so I cannot pop out to measure myself.

 

Thanks

CJ

It's the same as the spacer 5/16, well mine are.

 

You could reduce the height of the aluminium spacers for the strut. Sand them down maybe.

 

I can sell you a pack of aluminium spacers if needed.

I am tempted to sand them down although trying to get all eight exact will be tough.

 

The spacers you have; are they smaller in height? Or would they be to replace the ones I am sanding if it foreseeably c0ck it up

The spacers are 8mm thick, which is about the same as 5/16". You could sand them down or use stacks of M10 washers.

Thanks for your reply Jez,

 

I think I will attempt the washers first as that seems pretty fool proof
