Question Rear Coils

I asked this question in the suspension forum. Will the rear coils from a caddy or caprice/impala fit on these trucks and just lower it a bit or will it be unusable as a truck on occation?
Also, what is a good source for auto and truck interchange parts? Thanks for any input, it will be greatly appreciated. Troy

Does anyone have a stock truck set, off the truck,that they can check these measurements. If the legnth is shorter on these thats o.k.


Front springs 18 1/2 long 5in. diameter 5/8 thickness of the wire thickness. Three letter code FTD part# 22076505 Rear spring length 18 1/2 6 1/2 diameter 1/2in. wire thickness. Three letter code TRZ part# 22076683.


The springs listed above are what I'm looking at.

Thanks, Troy
