Heavier rear leaf springs standard on psd?

Have a broken spring on my f250, it currently has 5 leaves that I think is standard configuration. Looking for a 6 leaf set, friend of a friend has a 96 psd he's parting out. Anyone know if they came standard with 6 ? He isn't able to check for a couple days. I haul a lot of wood & more leaves should help.

F250s came with 4 or 5 leafs in the main pack

A top helper leaf was also an option but you also need the extra pads on the frame it it is pointless

My 92 F250 came with 5 leaf rears. Supercab 4x4 460. Broke a leaf on RH side. Replaced with 7 leaf on a parts truck I have. Also 92 F250 Supercab 460, but 2WD. 7 leaf parts truck also has overloads, but truck going on doesnt and brackets riveted. Didnt need so didnt bother with those

Was a 6 leaf available as an option? Maybe for camper package?

negative, unless you are calling the single top helper a leaf
