I don't know where FCP got those spring seats, but replace them immediately because they are gone. I suggest getting XC90 spring seats or the IPD heavy duty version, even the OEM spring seats will last longer than that.

If you DIY, break the large nut on top of the strut free before removing the strut.

Also check the sway bar endlinks for play, just in case they are a cheap version also.
