The inside is smaller in diameter in the middle.. It looks like an hour glass if I remember right. I thought the threads of the bolt would ruin the bushing, hence the need for a metal sleeve

buy bolts that have a longer neck and cut them down to the size you need, just enough for a nut and washer. that way the rubber is resting on the smooth portion of the bolt.
