Can anybody help me with the width of the spacer in the swivel hub
Between the inside Bearing and the inside Grease seal
It would appear I now have to make 1 after I have lost 1 of mine.

Cheers Jim :D

The spacer width for drum brake hubs (ball bearings) is 0.094" (2.38mm)
The one for disc hubs (Timken bearings) is 0.229" (5.81mm) thick

If fitting Timkens into a drum brake hub you should fit the wider spacer, or the seal will hit the bearing inner cone.
