I need lower spring seats for my front Bilsteins, the stock ones won't work because the Bilsteins are larger diameter. I'm leaving on Saturday morning, so I need these ASAP. Any idea where I could get them? Would AutoZone or something like that have something that will work?

The diameter of these shocks is larger than the stock ones, so the stock seat doesn't fit.Originally posted by s.reef View PostAre you sure? Ive done bilstein swaps a few times and always used the stock spring seats

I just called a guy from SLP, and he assured me that the stock seats should work. I called the guy back who's installing them for me (He does this stuff all the time and I took it there so he could do a 4-wheel alignment right away while he's at it) and I just got his voicemail, so idk what the heck is going on.
