Question about Front Lift springs 70 GMC - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

I got a pair of Front 4" Ligft Springs in a trade supposedly that would fit my 70 GMC 4x4. I removed the front differential and springs today. When I measured after I first got the springs I measured at the axle not at the spring hanger. The springs I have are 2.5" wide and with the bushings they measure 3". Old springs at bushings measure 3.5". Are these the right springs?
If someone with a lifted truck could do me a favor and measure for me at the end of the springs I would appreciate it.
Thanks and hopefully I did not confuse with the way I wrote this.
Thanks
Ron
