Question Alternative for Losi Ball Stud Spacers

Hello,

I just picked up a second hand 22 2.0 from eBay an I've just stripped it and I'm now rebuilding with some new parts.
I found I need a couple of additional ball stud spacers for the suspension. I looked at ordering the Losi spare parts (TLR6019), but find they cost around 20 Pound! I think that's a bit excessive for some shims.

Has anyone found a good alternative that does the same job but is a bit better on my wallet?

Thanks,
Rob

The plastic ones are much cheaper - TLR1066 at about £6

Just be careful tightening them up as you can compress them.

Thanks for number for the plastic ones. I think they'll do fine, just hadn't noticed they are available as well.

For the size of the washers: I'm not sure. I'd have to measure tonight. The outer diameter is smaller than standard washers which makes it difficult to use standard metric parts.
