Cheers everyone for your replies. I'm trying to make as much as I can inhouse. If I hit a brick wall I'll definitly follow your recommendations and use the 3GE bushes.

Trif,

Only got posting to you today, sorry, last couple of days been crap at work. You will find you probably will not have a big shoulder left on the bush but it will be enough. If a find the spare one I have I'll post a picture. I'm at the stage I can find F'all in the garage, bits everywhere.

Thanks for that Les, I just finished my pedal box (bar the bushes) and it is a LOT of filing. Working to a budget though and managed to make it for under a tenner. Hope to get my blog up to date this weekend and put a link on the forum to everyone a chuckle!
Cheers Trif
