The Ford Barn

Does anyone know what makes the 10-leaf pickup spring different from the 10-leaf sedan spring? They have different part numbers. Related to that, are all the "main leaves" (the one that actually attaches to the shackle) the same?

Thanks!

The thickness of the leaves.

There are three different 10 leaf springs. One for the Tudor, one for the Fordor and one for the pickup and station wagon. And as Glenn said, the difference is in the thickness of the leaves.

Yes, the main leaf has the ends for the shackles.

What I am looking for is: Are ALL Model a main leaves the same, or are there differences like width or thickness?
