Default Metal sleeves in Bar pin eliminators

When using the rear swaybar mount for a Bar pin eliminator is it a good idea to put a metal sleeve in your shock bushing after removing the barpin? I noticed the rear lower shock just has a rubber bushing with no metal insert. Also when I removed the barpin there was no metal sleeve in the bushing.

You don't really need one if the bolt that secures it is snug in the bushing. If that's not the case then you can either drill the holes in the mount to fit a larger bolt or get a sleeve that steps down to the bolt size.

Yep the bolts are a very snug fit, looks like I will run without a sleeve.
