Hi. Check the attached drawing. You can probably buy one from Acme Stainless or Draganfly.

Alex,

I think I have a spacer which is currently surplus to requirements. Not sure if I want it out of my spares pile, but you could use as a pattern?

Hi Alex,
As mentioned, Acme do them. You need the single metalastic spacer 4 1/2" long tube, scroll down in this link:-

It won't rust either being stainless so removing the spindle in future should be fairly easy.
Best wishes,
Keith.
