    Yeah I know but believe it r not that aluminum is quite expensive. I didn't price it but I asked our welder about some aluminum he has and he told me it's not cheap. When I go back to work I will get him to price what I need. I have grand jury the next three days.

    Not sure how it is in a machine shop, but when i was in the plant, them welders and fitters, and all the maintenance took whatever they wanted home!!

    I know I can make them. It's just to get the aluminum.

    Make sure you get the right grade aluminum or it could be too soft or too brittle. Either would not be good.

    According to Bob's site.

    "These spacers are made out of strong aluminum alloy and machined flat on both sides"

    The 2" set is only 109 with the S.S. Bolt kit.

    Since you work at a machine shop why not just make them from stainless steel which is stronger than aluminum?

    Re: 2" spacers (oiltech09)

    Moe for what they cost just go buy you some.The aluminum you get in teh machine shop is not the grade you want to make spacers with.Its got to be marine grade or aircraft grade aluminum.For $100 its worth getting you a set and be done with it.You may be able to find a second hand set for around $60..I'll look around..
