The rule-of-thumb I was taught by mechanic father is to squish the rubber so that the diameter is the same or slightly smaller--it's a judgement call--than the flatwashers that are doing the squishing. BTW, those bushes usually see a lot of oil and deteriorate quickly. Best to replace them with nylon or urethane when convenient.
