1972 F100 Sindles, Found Now What?

I found a couple of places that have the LH front spindle for my 72 F100, but they need to know if I have the 2750 lb. I beams or the 3000 lb. I beams.
The truck GVW is 4450 according to the data plate, but there is no data plate information for the front axles, just the rear a 17 listed (3.25 rear end ratio).
How in the heck do I determine if my front axles are 2750 lb. or 3000 lbs.?

IF the driver's door is original get me the Axle Code off the warranty plate. ******Or the BEST WAY is for you to get the engineering numbers off your original spindle and compare them to the ones on the spindle you are thinking of buying. **************
