A guy I ride with has a Giant Anthem from a few years back, he's useless with at looking after his kit and has allowed the shock bushing to be so worn than it appears to have ovalised slightly the eye. A new bushing has been fitted but there is visible play between the bush and the eyelet.

Is there anything that can be done? I was thinking drill out to round again and get an oversized bush maybe? is that even possible, or is it just a case of buying a new shock body? He's pretty skint so trying to find out the answers for him and help him fix it on the cheap if possible.

Thanks for any help from those with experience of this.
