I made my own.  I machined my spacers from a steel tube and drill the correct bolt-patern for the 3 bolts.

I remove them and pass longer bolts through the struts mount and spacers.

They work great.

All you need is some 1/4 inch plate and some pipe around 2 inches and access to a welder. Use  your top mount as a template and you can have a set whipped up in no time.

about 80 us $ for the spacers & skid plate, 2 weeks to ship to the uk |removethispart|@ 50 us $ - good value!! - the quality looks good, and everything fitted first time - I haven't used it in anger yet though !    I seem to think there is about 5 Brazilian $ to the US $
