Relocation cone for 130?

I popped one of my rear springs out recently while off-roading, I managed to jack it up with the high lift and relocate the spring back where it should be, but the helper springs top retainer was lost in the process.

Before I buy another standard helper spring upper retainer are there any options for relocation cones or anything like that for 130’s that work with the helper springs as well?

Here is the standard top retainer for the helper spring: https://www.island-4x4.co.uk/coil-spring-u...-5364.html

Not sure if my logic is flawed at all, but I was hoping to swap my helper springs for air helpers. My assumption being that at full extension if the airbag weren't as long as the main spring it would simply lose contact with either the axle or chassis mount at one end, but couldn't then escape again as the axle returned to normal height as it would be guided by the main spring.

I had a similar problem only my helper ended up moving sideways at the bottom not the top and wedging itself between the first couple of turns of the main spring just above the axle. There started many months of the dealer attempting to work out what the knocking noise was but that's another story...
