Installing ST Coilovers right now and having some trouble with the rear bushing. DIY's are telling me to use the old bushing which are significantly bigger than the new ones. Will that affect the travel or should I be alright? Also im concerned because if I use the new one it doesnt fit/ is loose right into the the bracket that attaches to the bushing. Pics below:

All that is is a bump stop. You'll bolt the rear shock through that mount so don't worry about the bump stop being "loose". The shock won't move. Use the shorter bump stop that came with them or else you'll bottom out the suspension a lot.
