Rear Leaf Spring ID?

I found some FORD leaf springs supposedly for a 1973 Truck and all I have to ID is the number D3TZ-5560-B. I did a search on Ford PN Search here and I was able to find out this much:
D = 1970's
3 = 1973
T = Truck
Z = Ford Service part
5560 = Rear Spring
B = ?

But from all this I still do not know what size truck these fit? Anyone know what the "B" means at the end of the number? I am wondering if these will fit my 77 F150 2wd truck. Any help would be appreciated. Thanks.

I finallyu got the guy selling these springs to go out and measure them for me and he said they were 2-1/2" wide and 56" long (eye-to-eye). Mine are the same width but are 3" shorter, so I am guessing these springs are for a 4x4 application. If anyone is interested he is selling these on eBay and they are Ford NOS.
