That is right the front will work but not the rear, get a set of springs for the rear or try the ZUK rear mini coil set up for the rear check this link out for a detailed set up of the coils.

It would involve cutting, grinding, and welding.

$75 for the springs and $100 iirc for ZUKS set up a little welding and your set for years to come

gearinstalls.com check the lower left cornor lots of different installs of this set up and you can find the prices for the kit he sells
