1964 1965 Rear spring interchange

My 1965 has weak rear springs on the back, especially on the passenger side.
My 1964 parts truck has very good rear springs.
Will they swap?

Thanks.

F-One, if you measure them please post it here. I have a '64 and I haven't had much luck finding them. '65 springs I can find.

Thanks,
Pat

New springs are available from Eaton Detroit Spring. I just got new springs for the front of my 63.
