Will it fit? Rears from a mid 80's K10 to my 72 K 10??

Message Board I need your assistance.

I recently came across and excellent deal on a set of K 10 rears from a mid 1980 K10.

My question is will these rears bolt up to my 72 K10?

REAR -- any one know the length of the 72 rear- rear from drum to drum? Leaf spring placement the same?

FRONT -- Will the steering components/leaf springs line up?

Any help appreciated.

I dont have the measurements but the spring perches will not line up, you will have to move them out if i remember

Shock mounts are different as well.

I believe the front will bolt up, but as already mentioned the shock & spring mounts on the rear would have to be relocated !
