[T2] Mustache bar spacers?

[Dave Gillingham]

Thanks!  When I align the mustache bar to the case, there is a welded on spacer for the lower 8mm bolt.  That sets the upper 10mm bolts away from the threaded bolt hole by nearly 2”??  I found a reference that says the correct bolt size for the lower bolt is 8 x 55mm, and the uppers is 10 x 70mm.  Seems like there must be some spacers?

Are you talking about the rubber mounts?  These:http://vwparts.aircooled.net/Rear-Engine-Mount-1968-71-Type-2-211-199-231A-p/211-199-231a.htm
Otherwise, I just have washers under the lower bolts and split washers under the top nuts.

First, I apologize that the system has decided I am a hacker or spammer.  Not sure what that is about.  I been a list member for a long time.  Please ignore the warnings.

My question regards the mustache bar for my 71 Westy.  At long last I am sneaking up on reinstalling the engine.  I found out the bolt sizes in the archives, but it looks to me (and I vaguely recall) that there are some spacers.  Can anybody help me with where to find them, or what size they are if I have to make my own?

Thanks
