NOS spindle bolt markings K and L

I've just opened a FoMoCo NOS A-3111 spindle bolt set and noticed that one bolt is marked A Ford K and the other is marked A Ford L. The K is familiar but the L is not. Any thoughts?

I don't know the answer to your question, but are they the exact mirror in all other respects?

I have NOS Ford King Pin sets "K A", "K B", and "K 48", But I haven't seen a "K L".

as long as it has the A it is Model A ,you are good . B is 32 and 48 is 35 on. the other letter is the shop or vender it came out of.

That's interesting. I didn't realize Ford used multiple suppliers for these parts, but that would make sense.

What companies are "K" and "L'?
Are there other suppliers?

Could the K be an R and be for right side and the L for left ?

My originals were marked L(left) and R (right). The replacements were not marked.....
