So Cleaned car today thought i'd have a shot at changing the rear busted stuff, quite a pain!
Seeing as the wheel was off i thought i may as well clean the rear drums:
Then onto dust covers and bump stops.
Drivers side (not split but tearing)
Shock out (easy):
Biggest PITA was getting the top mount off! You try undo the nut and the whole thing spins! Had to hold it with grips and twist with adjustable wrench.
New dust cover and bump stop:
Drivers side back in:
Passengers side:
Old next to new (can see just how buggered old one was):
Passengers side in:
Then when i moved car across to its side of the
garage there was knocking coming from the rear

Think i may have not tightened something enough
Still dont know what's wrong with front passengers side, had a little look and the spring is fine. Couldn't be bothered!
I'll get my mechanic mate round and he'll tell me whats wrong soon!
