Used cone's probably won't help you. Best off seeing if anyone is selling a used spring conversion or take a look at the vendors across the pond.

Crack open the Haynes manual
Not threaded they just sit together. Jack up the car then line them up and lower the car. Unless you have some worn out parts this should work.
