I could draw it myself, but I don't have the parts available to check fits. Speaking of, what did you guys print this on? A commercial printer, or a Reprap derivative?
Kevin, I hope you were able to download the files successfully.

The spacers were printed on a Fortus FDM 400mc (Large, not that it really maters) from ABS-M30 Material. Technically the machine is 'Production Grade', but I'd imagine just about any printer could knock these out. Worst case would be that the printer doesn't hit the required accuracy - IIRC, the spacers out of the Fortus ran something like +/- .002 - so you might need to sand or tweak the parts a bit for a good fit.
