Machining Front Spring Spacer

Alright I would do the measuring myself but my fiance had to take the disco to move a bunch of crap to her apartment and i won't have it back for a week, so i wanted to machine these before it comes back.
Alright using 6000-series AL 4" D x 1.5" T
I just need to know if the bolt spacing is the same as the rear? I've already made the rears. And also what size the center hole should be, so that I can just leave the shocks as is.
Thanks...

Chris,
What are to trying to put these spacers on, how much height are you looking for?
Why don't you use Rovers insulators, they will give you an inch and they are cheap?

How many Rover owners does it take to answer a technical question?

a DI, 1.5" T so assuming on 1.5" of lift or so in front. I can make them for the cost of materials, so ~$20

I just used rear spring insulators on the front spring. Lifted by about about an inch.
Sit straight on springs. Doesnt affect anything else.

These measurements are off the front bottom spring plate of a '95 D90
Center hole = 1 15/16"
Bolt holes = 2 11/16" center to center

Hope this helps. I'm pretty sure the disco is the same, but you can check rovers north catalog I think to see front and rear take the same plate.
