I've looked a lot into this.

80 series are (obviously) WAY heavier than a 1st gen 4runner. The springs will work, but they may be really stiff, more so in the rear than the front.

My recommendation would be to look pretty seriously at jeep cherokee front springs, and either 80 series fronts, or 3rd gen 4runner rears for the back.
