Re anti roll bar bushes

Hi
I have purchased a pair of 3.2s 986 front ARBs
I plan to refurbish them back to bare metal and re paint
and replace them with my 3.2s ones.
My issue is buying new bushes for them.
There are 3 sizes for the rears alone at 18.7mm 19.2
and 19.8. So with such small tolerances how the hell are you
supposed to know which ones to use.
Same with the fronts.
My only thoughts would be the part number on the securing
brackets and match to them. Then I have issue of
Putting paint on at correct thickness ?
Any advice appreciated

Looking at the parts catalog, it's going to depend on which year and transmission the ARB came from, as there seems to be 4 or 5 different sizes of ARB.
