68 4x4 3/4 ton

I have a 68 3/4 4x4 and a 87 one ton 4x4, going to swap the axel's, will the springs bolt up to the 68 from the 87? I have some 4 in lift springs from an 84 but the 68 rears are proving hard to find so was going to use the one ton rears. Will it work?

Fronts will not work, the square body springs are longer. Tape measure needed for the rear.

I put 84 4x4 running gear under my 72 frame rear I had to resend the spring perches and shock mounts. Springs bolted right in.Fronts needed a lot of cutting drilling and bolting but everything turned out perfect.
