Yeah, I edited that post a few minutes ago, after I realized that if the spacer I.D. is the size of the pilot (asked, not answered yet)then there is no material to turn a pilot from.
If available in the right thickness, and the I.D. is made to fit the pilot, then I may see if they can make me a set of male/female spacers in the right width. Even if they want double the asking price for the custom work, it will likely be cheaper than my local guy from scratch. I needed a transmission shaft years ago. Maybe 3" long, turned down to 1/2" at each end from about 3/4" thick and it was $80.00!
If I had access to the machine tools, I would definitely just make them.
Such is life,
