Cab Mounting Spacer?

Does anyone know the size of the bolt spacers used on the standard Cab and Radiator mount bushings? Come to find out the bolt and bushing kit I bought didn’t come with them and LMC wants $61 for all 6… I was hoping I could just pick some up from the hardware store. I have a 70 C10 2wd.. Thanks

Re: Cab Mounting Spacer?

I make my own out of pipe and make the pipe to length depending on whether the mounts are rubber of plastic. On the rubber mounts you will need a little "crush" on the rubber so the pipes are made 1/4" to 3/8" shorter then the stackup.

Thanks for the info, I kinda figured they would have to be a little shorter than the rubber but what type of pipe do you use?
