Another Nivomat question... 700 1987

Hello all! I just aquired a 1987 760GLE sedan with 263k miles from my neighbor and I have a question. I know this car has the Nivomat rear end, which has completely gone out. That stated, I need to replace the shocks but I don't want to invest much money into this car as I have no idea when it will stop running... Can I use the suspension (springs and shocks) out of a similar era 740 sedan and just put them onto my car, or do I HAVE to buy the Nivomat conversion kit? If not, what are my other options? I wouldn't mind doing some slight modifications to make the new parts work if it will keep the cost down. Thanks in advance!
