Brent,

The reason I asked is that I am finding a couple of different sizes of "A" spring leafs and was just trying to figure where they went in the scheme of things.

It appears that all the leafs were the same in the stacking order (longer on the bottom shorter going towards the top) except sometime either in late 1930 or in 1931 that two more were added to make a 12 leaf "A" spring. Am I correct?

Also, were the 1 (bottom), 2, 3, and 4 "A" leaf springs of the same thickness than 5, 6, 7, 8, 9 and 10 (short upper)?

Kind of looks that way to me.

Thanks. Pluck
