The upper and lower rubbers are the same, you need the big washer on each side of that too.. You cant really get it wrong

Could be the rear springs, they're meant to have rubber pad things at the top to stop it making a knocking noise.
Could also be your exhaust pipe, mine made a massive kind of "donk" on the axle after I lowered it

Metal sleeves were only on the bottom bushes of the shock (where it fixes to the rear beam).
