RIGHT SIDE // Left Side is D8TA-9-CA .. However, these I-Beams were used on 1975/79 F250 Regular Cabs with Gross Vehicle Weight Ratings of 6200 & 6900 lbs.
Someone needed to replace one or both of these I-Beams, went to a junk yard and didn't know there were different types.
1975/79 F100/150 I-Beams are marked: D5TA-8-FB or GA Right & D5TA-9-FB or GA Left
