Another option is to go to the bush used with the bilsteins if you are looking for less compliance.

OB, if you are not using the OEM foam type bush the thickness won't be entirely relevant. That foam compresses down a lot more than a poly replacement will so you may have to resort to a bit of trial and error.

I've just made a Set from a very hard piece of Rubber, which was 19mm Thick so I cut them down to 16mm with a Hack Saw.
Making them was easy but getting the lock nuts off was a PIA!
One of them took 4 Hours to undo and the other one took 8 Hours!
The most difficult Nut I have ever had to get off in my life, even when I hacksawed it through on three sides and in the end I had to resort to a FBH and Chisel!
I just don't know where the time went?

I'm planning to do a full write up of removal and refitting on my 'Cherry Blossom' Restoration Thread.
