Default HELP! problems with air cylinders

i have a used set of canovers.

first potential problem: 1 of the cans can extend if i pull on it. the other 3 dont. is this a seal problem with that 1? am i looking at rebuilding it?

second problem (major): the front cans didnt come with bushings. can i use my stock ones? or the ones off my coilovers? theyre both too wide for the cans, is it possible to have them stick out a little? is that safe or even doable? i went over canovers website multiple times, im not sure if im even able to buy the bushings separately. am i SOL?

can bushing opening compared to tein bushings


can opening compared to stock bushing

1. sounds like a seal problem. 2. if you get the bushing in, how are you gonna get it to stay? it'll still have alot of play in it after you put the bushin in. call that guy from garage floor customs, he can help you with it.
