RE: Rockshox Monarch RL (rear) end spacers

I'm looking for end spacers to fill the gap between the shock eyelet and the frame, so basically they will slide over the bushing that goes through the shock eyelet and stop any lateral movement of the shock. The eyelet is 14mm wide and the bushing is 20mm one end and 16mm the other. So I believe I'll need 2x3mm spacers and 2x1mm spacers. But can I find them? NO! What should I be googling, what are the magic words which will give me a result?

Stainless washers or shims?Just stack them up,a quick google brings many options.Ext. diameter may be greater than needed but may not be an issue.Try"Accu",20mm x14mm x 1mm stainless,1pound 20 to 1-80.

Axle spacers and chainwheel spacers (to name but 2!) are available from bike shops in ali. and various thicknesses.
but a photo would help, and I don't know if your 20 and 16mm are diameters or thicknesses....?

Some great suggestions there :)

I will accommodate with photos when I next get a chance to get into servicing mode in the next week or two.
