Front Shocks

I've been driving around wondering what that clanking noise was, looked under and found the front off side shock had come away at the top. I droped the shock out and it seems ok, I got a new nut for the top but cant figure out what else I need before replacing ? I've had a look at the other side and can see some sort of rubber bush on top, is there some kind of bush kit available if so where from. Or is it a new shock I need.

There is meant to be a rubber 'bump stop' at the top of the shock absorber, guessing you may have lost this when it came undone.
Not sure if these are available seperatly though.
