I seen Skyway brake fins used, looks like an expensive option though.

Someone with a lathe could make you a spacer in about 5 mins, something like these or try some of these links.

Use a front brake or spindle and turn the curved washers so they face each other making a wide flat washer
But a front brake spindle should do the trick thats what i used to hace on me old hutch :daumenhoch:

Yep - this is what we used to do - turn the washers around to face each other...
