you could do what i did.

i had some rear spring isolators laying around for an E36. i had already bent the tabs on the body where the mounts sit. i then just placed the isolators in between the spring and the body.

a better solution would be to install a thrust washer so that the spring can twist and not get bound up.

Thanks for your help Adam, I'll try calling. I wasn't thinking to click customer support but it makes sense now. I was just looking for 'contact us'.

a thrust washer is basically two pieces of material that allows the spring to twist and move freely. doing this however will still require some type of upper spring mount that will maintain position of the thrust washer.

basically you could save yourself all this trouble and upgrade at the same time by purchasing spl's midlinks.
