If i remember correctly the rear leafs are narrower on the 67-68 but I'm not completely sure so don't take just my word for it.

67 and 68s have a rear spring that tapers from 3inch at the eye too 2.5 at the perch and are 56 inches long.....thats why they are so hard to find......you can make the 69-72 springs work with some washers on the hangers to space them out and zero rate add-a-leaf to move the axle forward....simple but kinda complicated.
