Shackle Bushing Question

Another stupid question, hence this being placed in Noob Tech. I searched and came up with nothing I might be , but who knows?

I've been researching stuff for my lift and I came across something interesting about some bushings. The chart on 4crawler.com says that the bolts on the shackles are 18mm and 14mm, however the 14mm is sleeved to 18mm. So basically they both take an 18mm ID bushing if I'm understanding correctly.

On the Marlin Crawler website, they sell a large bushing and a small bushing. The small bushing has an ID of 18mm and an OD of 29.75mm. The large bushing has an ID of 19mm and an OD of 39.5mm. They say the small bushing is used for the rear spring hanger, but the large bushing is used for the rear spring eyelet? Could that be just a typo? I don't see why they would sell a bushing with a 1mm larger bore.

I just checked WabFab but they don't have any dimensions on their bushings.

Anyone want to make this clear for me? All input is appreciated. Thank you in advance.

There's only 3 sizes needed. Small leaf spring, large leaf spring and frame mounts.
