Rear coil replacement issues

Well, I'm trying to put rear lowering springs on the 63. I have accomplished making it non operational......I tried PB Blaster on all four bolts, but they broke off anyway. I guess I'll have to track down some torches and make stuff real hot!!!

What are the cups called on both ends of the coils? Are they available??

Anyone wanna stop by and bail me out, feel free!!!
