Default Coil spring seat

I’m working on putting the bilstein 5100’s on my truck but noticed my coil seats are cracked and rusted. Does anyone know where to get a set (already checked junk yards) or have a set they are willing to part with?

I would return the set of 5100's and buy a set of Rancho Quick lift coil overs and replace it all. If the coil spring seats are corroded and cracked .. the coil springs themselfs my be next.

Unfortunately they came as a pair with the rear shocks and I’ve already installed the rears and tossed the old ones so returning isn’t an option. Springs look fine I’m just not sure why the seats cracked. Hopefully I can find the seats or someone with some used struts they are planning to toss so I can take them apart.
