Pixie Posted February 13 Posted February 13 Does anybody have a single spacer for the harness eye bolts, or know where to get the right ones. Wary of getting something that isn’t the correct strength. Here’s what I’m after -
Matt_S Posted February 13 Posted February 13 Just make sure you have enough thread showing through the bottom of the chassis threaded sleeves 1
Mark (smokey mow) Posted February 13 Posted February 13 I assume you’ve tried Westfield? https://www.westfield-sportscars.co.uk/shop/1417056-harness-eye-bolt-mounting-spacer-7670#attr= 1

Pixie Posted February 16 Author Posted February 16 Thanks @Insuranceman & @Mark (smokey mow), ordered one through Westfield, was hoping to avoid the postage cost, but turns out there’s a few things on there we wanted anyway so it wasn’t all that bad in the end. thanks again! 1
LoneWolf Posted February 16 Posted February 16 How tall are those spacers, if anyone can measure them please? Sorry to hijack the thread.

As @Mark (smokey mow) said, 1 inch tall, without verniers I can’t measure accurately, but the ID looks to be 1/2 inch, OD is just over 20mm, 0.8 inch or 4/5 inch, take your pick 1

dvd8n Posted Tuesday at 15:48 Posted Tuesday at 15:48 Maybe a bit late to be relevant but I came across these in the garage today from when I removed my harness: Maybe the sizes aren't that standard. David 2
Andrzej Posted 1 hour ago Posted 1 hour ago I got my spacer bushings made by a local machinist. So then one can choose proper height (different as different is position od harness holes in different seats, runners or no runners under seat, lowered floor or not etc. Worth to make it that lenghtm so harness is not in contact with opening in seat or at least smallest angle possible. Eye bolts are in different lenghts so no problem . It’s an easy job for them (lathe operator) , and you can pick stainless or regular steel. I also went a bit thicker than the ones I see in the photos here, just to be on the safe side.
