87 Pickup Rear coil swap for leafs?????

I have alifted wrecked 95 runner. Would It be possible to use the 4 inch lift coils in the rear in place of my leaf springs? I was planning on using my rear springs up fornt for my sas swap if so. Any insight would be appriciated.

Are your rear springs the stock springs? If so i dont know if they will hold the weight of the motor. X2 on the trail gear springs.
