2 door vs. 4 door springs

I did not think that the 4 door springs would fit the 2 door because of the difference in wheelbase. I would be interested in details. What year is your 2 door and what year did the springs come off of? Most importantly, were there any midifications required to make the new springs fit?

Thanks,
