Why don`t you use AN hardware ( bolts ) on the shocks/mounts ? Really not that expensive , around $2 to $3 /bolt .... it`s what the NASCAR teams use . A friend on mine used to be a team manager for an IMSA pro team and that`s all they use on the suspensions . When I checked my car , I found several things I needed to change ... and one was the grip length of the bolt ( unthreaded part ) was too short and part of the threads were on the shock mount support bracket . In addition , since I was changing to competition shocks with spherical eye mounts , this can and will put a more concentrated load on the bolt than a standard shock mount .
On your spacers , I had a machine shop machine exactly what I needed out of some thick wall tubing .... everyone`s spacers were either too long or too short .
Since I track the car some , this is something that helps me sleep a little better .
If interested , I can give you the company in FL I got my hardware from .
