Basically i've had a knocking on the back end of the car, took my shocker out and the bushes/pates taken out were like this: (ignore the metal plates)



But the replacement ones from vaux were these: (left bush is for the underbody)



The bushes in the top pic sit tight around the shocker, but the vaux ones dont and the one that sits on the underbody, the sort of v shaped one if you look at it side ways is miles different.......

What has everyone else used? Or are the rubbers shallower and different looking due to the shorter pistons?

generally, shorter shocks use smaller rubbers. just fit whatever works best.
