I usually make the tool out of some welding rod filed down on the end.

Yes, that is the correct arrangement, those spacers and the standard

The spacers came in 2 lengths depending on when your 2+2 was made, the
earlier ones were longer like the ones you have.
There should also be spacers on the top of the shocks with these.
They were joined using polyurethane adhesive , Sikaflex 221 usually.

Can you take some pictures ?
The H4 normally uses the donor Mk3 units set back in the car.
If they are anything like the ones in my 2+2 they were bought at a kit

You mention this car is at the other end of the country.
Are you going to pick this car up or is the seller going to arrange for it to
be delivered ?
If they are delivering it be careful, i know somebody who was scammed out of
10K when they bought a camper at the other end of the country
I’ve not had good experience with covers on painted cars, i’ve always found
that they get damp trapped under the cover (even supposedly breathable ones)
and it makes the paint blister up with blisters full of water.

1 bolt on the Fiesta
>From memory they came from Mk3
Ian Cummings made a batch up a few years ago, i don’t know if there are any
left.
You could also try Quantum, they may have some.
There were actually 2 sorts, the early ones had a black band around the edge to
hide the adhesive, the later ones didn’t.
The glued on ones tend to be the ones that
recall the info was that it was a box from a diesel!
Anyway, I'll take a photo when I'm back (away today) and send it over.
