Default spring retainers

I have seen somewhere a rear spring retainer that attaches to the lower perch and the upper but,can't seem to find it now. If someone knows who or where I can find that it would help me out. Also have a question about if the upper attachment point will it work with a coil spring spacer (1 or 1.5" ) ?

also need some advise on how to secure the front springs.

thanks for the quick reply

when you say front lower clips. I guess I would not need an upper for the front because of the bumpstop configuration would allow the top to reseat.

I'm alittle unsure of the upper attachments. I couldn't find any clear info. If you have the bumpstops that replace the OEM ones then they hang lower preventing your springs from dropping out.

I am mainly useing the clips to keep my springs seated in the lower perch grooves, they move around when I flex.
