    The ID of the bushing is 5/8" and the metal sleeves do not fit inside

    Check out that link. You should have a 5/8" OD x 1/2" ID sleeve to convert the top to a bushing mount.

    Those smaller sleeves are used as a heim. Whats the total width with one of those on each side of the lower mount?

    That link shows a longer sleeve not short ones like I have.. In the links picture its a single long piece that goes inside those bushings, I have 4 short sleeves that do not fit inside the bushings..

    I know, lol we're posting too fast.

    In my previous post I said you "should" have the longer sleeves that are 5/8" OD to convert the top shock mount to a bushing mount.

    Those smaller metal spacers are for on each side of the bearing when using the heim setup.

    Call JBA and ask them about the 5/8" OD - 1/2" ID sleeve that you believe you need to convert the top mount to a bushing mount. Then i'd install the bushings up top, use washer to fill any remaining gap, and use heim on the bottom.

    How wide is the bottom with one of those metal spacers on each side?

    1.25" the bottom measures with sleeve each side... Could I cut the top bushings down so they will fit up top and shim the bottom?
