Just reuse the bottom plate. Good luck and be careful. Have heard some horror stories about the front shocks.

My SLP Take Off's did not come with a spring perch either. I just reused the one off the old DeCarbon's and it worked just fine.

Good luck getting the top nut off that SOB. Most likely it will be hopelessly corroded and rusted and will have to be air chisled off.
