LJ 80 Front springs

My LJ springs are worse than flat. Have seen some standard Samurai springs on Ebay Germany. Not looking to get any great lift, just want to remove the sick front end look. The question is ---- Will they fit?

SJ springs are a straight swap, but will raise the ride height so check your shock absorbers are long enough at the front (can't remember if they are still OK, its so long since I did One). Rear shocks will still be OK. I used to use rear shocks at the front with my Rancho springs, as the original ones were too short and I couldn't afford after market ones at the time!!!
Incidentally the front springs do bow slightly the "wrong" way, so they are probably not as bad as you think.
I used to use too run mine with standard SJ springs and Monroe Gas Magnum Shocks.
