End-link confusion...oops!

I normally wouldn't ask such a question but it's necessary. Somehow I was careless and mixed up the swaybar endlinks from my fb and ones that came installed on a set of spindles I purchased (at least I think that's where they came from). I'm trying to determine if I am using the correct sleeves on the fb.
I've searched for pics but couldn't locate fb specific content here on the forum as well as vendor sites. Mostly generic pics. If someone can post a pic of their stock endlink hardware it would be appreciated. If nothing else I'll settle for a measurement of the steel sleeve/spacer length (the one that fits over the bolt)
Is it recommended to shorten the spacer when lowering the vehicle? I'm assuming the longer spacers came from my car and the shorter spacers from the set of spindles since they were removed from a track car?
I have a set of 1" spacers and a set a tad over 2".....

Sorry, I dont have a camera, but my spacers measure 2 1/8" so yes, the longer ones should be for your fb.
