I hesitate to say "absolutely, unequivicably" YES, but I'm fairly sure 
you could follow the same steps. The last of the GT6 Mk.3 models used 
the swing-spring setup. Originally, the GT6 used a spring with a 
different part number, but I believe all replacement springs are now of 
the Spitfire type (p/n 159640). At any rate, you'd also need the fatter 
front sway bar.
