I also added a gas spring to the bucket, mostly for the visual appearance as the bucket is already way more powerful than it needs to be.

The spacers are made the same way as previously, cut tube to length.

Ebay links:
- 8mm (ID 6mm) tube cut to 4mm length: http://www.ebay.com/itm/121762445745
- 12mm (ID 8mm) tube cut to 4mm legnth: http://www.ebay.com/itm/121762512929
- 6x30mm pin: http://www.ebay.co.uk/itm/121868709865
- 8x80mm pin: http://www.ebay.com/itm/291511678072
- Eyelets: http://www.ebay.com/itm/151838223022

The lower eyelet is drilled out to 8mm to fit the 8mm pin in the bucket linkage.
