Steering colum bush knocking

Hello, I have a slight knocking noise when I drive over rough gravel and fields. The discovery has had new front wishbones and bush when I brought it. The knock does feel like it's coming up the steering colum. I have read about steering colum bushes being a problem.
How do I replace this bush? And what parts are needed?

There is something about replacing steering shaft as well but can't find a part number or anything.
