I've been picking a 79 for parts and I wonder if the front and rear leaf springs will work on my '73.

I believe the 73 to be stock with two leaves in front, but I actually have 8 in the rear. They're not in the greatest condition, but I like how the truck sits.

Do the 79 fronts have different arcs?

Pics are the 73.

The springs should be interchangeable. Looking at the pics of the front, they do not look too bad - they are rust, but do not appear to be sagging much, if and, judging by distance to the stop.
