anyone made their own bumpsteer spacers?

[jesusno2]

I just got my lathe back from idaho, I'd like to make some of these spacers and was curious if anyone else has made their own. I know their not terribly expensive to buy but I need a project and thought these would be a good one. I fella told me he made some out of tubing? Curious on how that was done.

I'll try to find my cad drawing for you. Give me a day or two. If you are making your own, you can make them taller that normal if your car needs it (e.g. don't limit yourself to what everyone else has, make it to the size YOUR car needs).

Trace the bottom of your strut, drill-punch the holes for the bolts, cut it out, tape it to the strut bottom and rub a pencil to get the ID of the cavity. Then go to town.

I only found an old hardcopy of the spacer dimensions. I'll try to recreate on AutoCad in the next day or two and post it.
