Find the brand of the shock and google the seller and get him to supply the correct bushes.

Would it surprise you to know that the shock is Land Rover brand, fitted by the Land Rover dealer?

And yes, next time I will be getting a different brand and doing it myself.

Or you could put a few packing washers between nut and shock rubber washer, Regards Frank.

Exactly my thoughts Frank and have done that now. Good enough for the moment at least... Later I might investigate some poly bushes that are 5-10mm deeper. I'm just happy I don't have to listen to constant squeaking this weekend away now!!

They don't look like Rover bushes to me, unless they have mightily compressed.
