Which shocks for '63 K10

I'm currently in the middle of an axle swap on my '63 K10 (1/2 to 3/4 ton) and was wanting to run Rancho RS9000 shocks. The parts books and online catalogs don't seem to address these years. My questions are these, are the shocks for 60 -66 the same as the ones for '67 to '88 or is there a difference? If there is a difference, can other shocks be adapted? Lastly, the springs that I'm installing appear to have slightly more lift than the originals (possibly 2-4"). Thanks for any advice or comments and Happy Superbowl!!!
