FJ55 leaf springs

[yatranorth]

My 76' has bad rear leaf springs.
I have access to a 73' parts rig.
Does anyone know, if the springs are interchangeable? Thinking they should be. Cheers.

I am thinking that '73 springs are the same as '76 springs...maybe even better. 55 springs last longer than 60 springs, '69 Pig sheetmetal is thicker than '76 sheetmetal, therefore, '73 springs are just as good or better than '76.

EDIT: (Also, do not forget the local Blacksmith/springshop that can re-arch your springs...)

Still trying to figure out replacing the rear leaf springs...
Would springs from a 60 series work perhaps??

All the 55 springs swap. My 69' has springs from a 77'.

Frankenporcines unite!
