Default can i just buy ground control sleeves?

i went to lower the rear of my car today, and the allen screw on my ground control sleeve was rounded .. i have no idea how to get it out, so i was wondering if i could just purchase the ground control sleeves? no springs .. does anyone know if this is possible?

or even if its possible for me to fix that

you can order cheap ebay "coilovers" which are just the spring and sleeves and just throw the springs away.. i dont know how good the sleeves would be but i cant imagine they could be that terrible.

call ground control and ask them directly, that'll be your best bet. or at least whoever you ordered them through.

drill it out and tap a bigger hole and get your own bolt from any hardware store. kinda a pain in the **** though
