Just Kampers 4" adjustable narrowed beam fitment - parts missing?

[Zerotosixty2]

My newly purchased beam seems to be missing the needle bearing retainers (they look like this)

Mine are old and rusty 2 are definately unusable. I cannot see them for sale anywhere (JK, VWHeritage and GSF(!) tried) should they be with the beam? They arent in the pictures (just noticing this)

if not where can I get them or are they unobtainium?

This has really shafted my weekend now as I was intending getting the leaves shortened and drilled today read for rebuild. grrrr.

TIA

well I found the answer. they knock into the end of the beam tubes. no one makes them anymore so it's use your own or find some used ones. I didn't feel comfortable trying to fit the arms without so made the best of a bad job.

hope this helps someone else out...

You don't need them
