I'm not familiar with the part you are looking for. Can you post a photo or a more detailed description? The front suspension springs on my 2WD truck don't have any sort of retainers on them. The springs are just sitting right on the lower control arms and they contact the crossmember directly on the top.

The cups are formed into the control arms so there are no cups that are bolted in. I third on the pic.
