68 up power steering bracket spacer?

Can somebody help me with the size/dimensions for the spacer that goes between the P/S bracket and block on a 68 & newer Olds? It's not the one that goes on the front mounting stud for the P/S but the rear most mounting bracket.

Thanks in advance.

Mike

Inline Tube sells the spacers as a kit, comes with both the front one and the rear. The rear is about the size of a nickel in outside diameter and probably about one quarter inch thick, maybe slightly more. Speaking from memory as it has been a while since I installed mine

It's about 3/4" thick. I'll confess that in a pinch, I've used a large nut with no problems. Something for a 3/4" bolt should work. In fact, that nut is probably still on my 70...
