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. |

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. |

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. |
