That's going to vary from vehicle to vehicle. Best will be having open end shims with matching thickness washers to adjust the height when putting the front end back together. You may not even need any as not all when new needed them. Another thing to keep in mind is the condition or the mount cup that if too corroded will need much more shimming.

your best bet is to loosely get it hung on there with the bushings/hardware you have and fine tune it when the fenders/hood are back in play.
