X2, just buy them, you won't save any money by cobbling some crap together.

if you have use of a mill or lathe, you could turn some up using uhmw.
they need to be chamfered to sit against the spring isolator and beveled for the coil to seat against it.

just borrow a front and rear spacer and use those measurements.
