The monoball ball joints that I will use for the lower rear shock mounts are 12mm narrower than the original M3 shock mounts. This means I need adapter spacers to make them fit.
I made them out of 6061 aluminium, they're a bit tricky to make as theyre small parts that are difficult to hold. I ended up making a fixture to do them, quite time consuming for just some washers.
This should be the last bit of machine work needed, just need to nickel plate the shock mount eyes and press these ball joints in and assemble.
