If you buy the genuine Mazda parts you shouldn't have any problems with dimensions unless someone has fitted a non-standard anti-roll bar.

About 8 years ago I followed a tip from the Simon Jones of his day, Bongo owner and professional mechanic Dandywarhol. Instead of buying new bushes I re-sleeved the old ones with bicycle tyre inner tubing. Worked a treat and they're still going strong :-)
