Anybody have a spare black plastic or hard rubber spacer for the chrome sail?

so frustrating you try to do something and being held back because of missing a little piece like that but I don't see any way to put the chrome trim on the sail without it otherwise the trim would bend when you tighten the screwClick to view attachment

I could be wrong, but don't recall a spacer in the roll bar sail panel?

I probably was not clear so I added a picture of the spacer to the original post

Yes it is stock, and there to prevent overzealous tightening smile.gif

Ace Hardware sells bushings like that.
IDK if the dog bones are the same thickness? If so, could use part of one of those?

Maybe you could use the thick 3/16" fuel line and just cut off what you need

Maybe you could use the little spacers made for the rocker panels and valance? ..maybe doubled up? 914rubber carries them - but contact them either way, I’d be surprised if they didn’t have a solution. Good luck.

I thought about that but the center hold might be a little to large. That would definitely be better than nothing at all

I bought spacers from the Hardware Store and sanded them down to the correct height.

I found something at the Hardware store.

Still need to find the correct stainless screws though

The screw is a 2.9 x 19mm oval head self tapping screw. Bel Metric should have them.
