You can either go with UCA's by TC or Camburg. The uniball design is made to last a long time. The other option is to install limit straps. You'll need to drill a hole or use existing holes to mount the top of the limit strap. The bottom can be mounted using the lower shock mount bolt and you'll just need to drill a hole in the coil bucket.

When I had adjustable coilovers I needed limit straps because of the same issues you are having. I purchased a pair of Deist adjustable limit straps. I mounted the bottom limits straps using the sway bar end link. The top, I used a hole (drilled a larger opening) next to the brake line mount.
