Need to find where to purchase Threaded insert (nutsert) on the c5 front spring
Hello everyone I am new to the forum and really need some help on where to find where to purchase the threaded inserts (nutserts) on the front spring for my 2000 c5 ,the height adjustment bolts seized up in the insert and was heated up to attempt to remove and the entire insert came out and isn't reusable completely rusted, found a old thread on this forum and the info was very helpful but all the shops from the time of the post are no longer in business. I appreciate any help at this point trying to avoid buying another Z06 spring

Reason: Added some details to better explain my dilemma
They aren't sold separately and they look like they are press-fit tightly and bonded by maybe some polyurethane glue.
The front spring for both the 01+ Z51 and Z06 are the same. There is a front Z06 one for sale on flea bay for $175 shipped.
The old part # for the whole spring is 22178729, and I think the updated part # is 25962573
Yeah I am pretty sure that spring is done for. But if all you want is the lowestest it will go then there ya have it. Did you purchase the car with Z06 springs added by another owner?
