Leaf Springs A or B

I need to replace a broken rear spring on my 99 F250 Superduty, the junk yard wants to know if I have a A or B spring system, how do I determine that?

Look at the sticker between the doors, where it shows build date and such. Look at the bottom of the sticker and it will tell you what springs front and rear you have.

Finally got it, it said WA, apparently W is front, and A is rear. Picked one up at the junk for $60, just need to put in still. Thanks for your help Miller.....

Good deal. I guess I could have said the two letters were together. But you figured it out.

From what I understand, the back has an A or B, it might be the number of springs for SuperDuty.

you might want to swap both springs. so your truck does not lean to one side.

It's not that they are weak, the person before me did something to break one.
