Coil Springs

The summit parts lookup states that front coils for F100s are the same p/n for 65-79.

Is this true?

At $65 and only 20min away, I would like new coils when I swap the disc brakes over.

Mine are shot on the 66, even with new shocks she rides like a roller coaster.

I believe I am running the 76 donor coils under my 66 but it is too far back for my remembier to be certain.

Bouncing around is one of the things that slicks do best. I have read many times here that sway bars may be a better way to address that.
