Spring compatability?
Will rear 4X stock 79-83 leaf springs be interchangalbe with stock 4X 84-85?
Legthwise? Load wise?
The reason for me asking. I broke both of the helper springs in the leaf. I swear it sags now. When one broke, it flipped inwards and bashed a hole in the gas tank. Fixed.
Thanks very much.

Generally yes. The earlier springs are a little different in setup than the later ones. Usually have 5 leaves instead of 4. You can swap in the whole pack or some of the individual leaves as needed.

are you wanting to just use some of the leafs to repair it or are you wanting to use the whole spring pack and main leaf?
i would just swap leafs... since the main leaf on the olders is gonna move your axle back half an inch and they are 3 inches shorter resulting in horrible shackle angle...
