11 speed SLX 11-40T cassette on an 11-speed road freehub?
I would like to put an 11 speed SLX 11-40T cassette on an 11-speed road freehub (white Industries). What thickness spacer(s) are needed?
Thanks in advance.

Probably 2mm, but you will just have to try it and see to make sure, there are variances.

(I'm using the one supplied with an Ultegra 11-34 T cassette, which can be put on a mountain freehub.)
I started with a 2.4 mm spacer, and came pretty close to stripping out the titanium threads, but fortunately that doesn't seem to have happened. I also switched from the SLX lockring to a used Ultegra. It seems to be more forgiving.
The good news is that, with a slight adjustment of my GRX rear derailleur B-screw, it shifts onto the 40T cog.
