3/16 or 1/4 steel brake line might work for a spacer.
you can buy a foot and make the spacers as big as you need them.

depends how tight the spring adjuster needs to be to support the truck.
looking at the small amount of travel left between the shock body and bottom mount.theres not much.i guess this is going to be a racer not a basher?

thats a nice truggy body but i've alway thought truggies looked nicer with regular truck bodies. anyways, the lo-pro towers and 8t shock combo looks good.

You should have gotten some of these

[link=http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_info.php/products_id/7796]http://www.amainhobbies.com/product_info.php/products_id/7796[/link]

Looks like you already have the bushings. You might have to widen the holes though to fit them. Worth a look anyway. The hellfire stand offs work great for the hellfire shocks I used. I choose them because I knew the screw sizes were going to be the same as the savage ones .

Do you have any hardware stores nearby? ask them if they carry the screws. On a side note calling is cheaper then driving hehe.
