There are sleeves in the first gen modules as well to limit compression when you put it together. First gen spacers should be close to .143”. Here’s a pic of when I first got my modules and I absolutely HAD to put them in the cart and run down the road, ignore my layout as it was temporary. Plywood end plates are still being used and working fine.

Trying to get the small parts from Tech Direct is ridiculously expensive individually. Even on the auctions that “include” the plates. I never got them and they refunded me a portion.
I am fine without them in the long run.
