Sounds like your making progress. Good stuff. This is the "sort of" noise the front LCA bushes (clevis bracket) make when they are on the way out. Backs up your suspicions of the noise being in the rear.
These bushings shud be pretty standard sizes.
If you measure up and look at the Redranger site or some of the other Aussie ones you can search on the basis of style size and type. Just entering Nolathane will bring it up in a std search and anyone who stocks them shud be able to get them.
As a last resort:
Even getting close in nolathane (slightly oversize) these can be easily machined to size - machining might be an issue over Christmas shutdown tho. BUT if you have any luck and do need machining put out a holler in this thread - some of us have lathes etc.
A good parts enterpreter might be able to help. Do you have a regular? The blokes I have been going to for years never just look blankly at me when I ask about the Jeep - I've sent so much business their way they wouldn't ever just say no and pee me off.
BTW IMHO it doesn't necessarily mean the shock is gone unless leaking etc. or if you give it a jounce test how many bobs to settle? - traditional but very effective.
