spacers on steering rack

changed control arms to tube type, now rack hits lower bolt. how big of spacers do you all use on your setup. o ya has air bags. and did you have them made at machine shop. using free labor to get this done. as have one working arm. so need as much info as possible so there not running back and forth. thanks for all reply's.

i thought about washer. maybe weld them together. ive seen alot of stuff fall apart with stacked washers lack of tightening or vibration not sure dont want to find out. have you added support to lower bolt to prevent falure of control arm. thanks rod
