Striker-Sierra Rear Hub Spacers
I'm re-assembling my Striker's back end after my driveshafts gave up the ghost and I'm trying to improve the way the hubs are
attached to the rear upright. I have drums on the rear and the backplate is 'stood off' the upright top allow for the waviness of the
pressing and to accommodate the adjuster plunger thing that sticks out the back. The stock way to do this is to pack out with washers on the four M10
hub bolts. This seems a bit weak and shonky to me as it point loads the bearing housing and the bolts.
I basically need an aluminium spacer that sits between the hub and the upright (about 15mm) as seen in the picture below pinched from Tris's
thread
Anyone know where I could get such a thing?
I've shortened a 'new' set of driveshafts (will post how I did it soon) to suit the washer-packed distance so don't really
want to do a disc conversion and have to re-shorten them.

Have some of these already made up as I was going to use drums, but i am now going for disks. Only thing is, I have two sets, 1 in 10mm one in 20mm
spacing.
£20 for 1 set or £30 for both?

I just cut some out of 5mm alloy sheet for mine with a jigsaw, holesaw and drill.
Just time consuming.

Phew, certainly beats sourcing and wrestling with a lump of aluminium and snapping jigsaw blades and filing and drilling and fly cutting and swearing
U2U sent obviously
