Beside the Spring rate.. Is a c20 spring able to "Bolt On" a C10 and maintain the same ride height of the c10?
If the coil is a larger size rod on a c20 will the mount plates bolt on a C10 trailing arm?

I'll attempt two questions :
When I bought my 65 back, someone put a piece of diamond plate steel for the bed. They also put air shocks on it. The 1/2 ton springs weren't strong enough to keep the bed from dropping so low that the fenders rubbed on the wide tires.
I was able to swap out the 1/2 ton springs with 3/4 ton springs with no mods. 1/2 ton coil base brackets worked fine with the 3/4 ton coil springs. For me, going from C10 to C20 springs raised my truck up in the back quite a bit.
