Front coil info

Hello to all:
Two or three years ago, picked up this pair of 2nd hand coils. I have forgotten the finer details but had thoughts of increasing '17 F350 4WD spring for plowing, etc. The springs, 5C34-5310-AAD are 7K rating, based on my vague search. Assuming the AA is a 7K spring, I noticed different variations AAC, AAD etc. What does the "D" mean in the AAD?
If I am far off the mark, please correct me. I am appreciative of any and all!
Best Wishes and Happy Holidays.

You likely will have to contact a company that specializes in coil spring, many on the net.

I scoured the net out of curiosity and found nothing regarding "D".

If I remeber correctly the 7,000lbs spring was thicker, thinking. 881?
if it was me I would look for front air bags that fit in the coils.
Smoother ride when emptywill less air. then add air for loads
