74-77 should be the same, the 73 springs are a bit lighter as they did not have the 5mph bumpers on the back yet.
I thought that they would be different. Some websites list rear springs as fitting '67-'77 A-Body cars while others split it up from '68-'72 and '73-'77 respectively. I'm not really looking to change the ride height. I wanted to use Moroso trick springs on the rear, but they don't make them for these cars. I'm going to get rear springs from Belltech and going to look into an airbag to help compensate for flex on the right rear spring to try and even out the starting line launch. I hope all that makes sense.
