I used the longer '94 style springs in front and due to the length you will have to put shackle hangers under the frame. Not a huge problem but it makes it hard to keep the ride low. It does work well for me but I think I would use the shorter early springs if I was going to do it over again.
Also, try to get the bottom few leaves from a stock front pack. The leaves that mostly hang to the rear of the spring pack. They will help it handle without adding stiffness.
