it comes out to about 1/4" in total. the washers are just the really large ones with about a 1" hole that you can get at any hardware store. i forget which side of the brake bracket the spacer goes on, but i will check and let you know. i will also try and snap a few shots of what you are trying to accomplish that might make it a little easier...

nope, you put the washers (or custom made spacer) between the stock spacer and the brake bracket. you could put it between the bracket and swinger, it just wont work well... remember *most* of the parts from the 2 bikes are the same or similar enough to swap with minor modifications, here the differences are the rim, break arm, and swingarm. you need to compensate for those variations to make them work on your bike...

so it goes:
rim>stock spacer>washers>brake bracket>swingarm

hope this helps...
