Default need some rear suspension bush dimensions

If anyone has easy access, I would like to get the thickness and diameter of
the bushings in the strut assembly at the rear of the IRS. In the picture it
is the "birdcage" assembly at the rear of the carriage which has two bushings
at the bottom of the differential and two in the outriggers.

I am trying to figure out if they are the same size as the X300 bushings for
their equivalent dogbones. Poly bush vendors list them for the X300 but
not the X308 and it may simply be a matter of them not knowing.

To any X300 owners stumbling by, that birdcage would seem to be a
way to improve suspension location since it is is single fixed set of
points rather than the two dogbones that can move independently.

I think the late XJR/6 may already have it, but not the others.
