Since the suspension width changed in '73, I would think there could be potential for other changes as well, but you might as well give them a try and see if they fit. Leaf spring suspensions are not rocket science by any means, just be sure that whatever you do to the drivers side, you do the EXACT same thing to the pass. side.

Good luck!
