Have leaf springs 2835072. Does anyone know were to look for what year car they belong too. Restoring a 68 A-body. Wanted them to be the right ones
What year are these leaf springs?

Do both springs have the same number? If so, they probably aren't OEM, OEM springs have one odd and one even number in most cases. What is the measurement of the length of the springs and do you know the history of them? In my opinion, I wouldn't trust them without knowing the background on them. I would opt for a new pair of springs to fit your specific application.

As stated above. That number if correct would only be for one side. Odd number on the left (drivers side) even on the right side.
The IPB should have the numbers!

All the A-bodies I've seen use the same spring RH and LH for a given model. They made 4, 5, and 6 leaf versions and different front eye bolt diameters, but, the actual spring will interchange LH and RH.
That's my experience as well. In fact, I have the original springs that came out from under Vixen. I haven't looked at the part numbers, but they both have the same number of leafs and they are all the same lengths from left to right.

I know there is a right and left for s/s springs. These are both the same. What car does this go to and what year. Are they the right number for a 68?
I'm unsure there's any way to determine that. Since the leaf springs for A bodies are all interchangeable, I believe the only thing you'd be able to determine would be the spring rate. I could be wrong. What does your factory part number interchange manual say?
Why not check the factory parts book for '68?? If they arent there, then they must be non original, or for a different application???
You can download any year at mymopar.com.

Golly Beave, how'd you come up with that one? From post #8? LOL
how many leafs in a spring? What engine in your '68?
No, actually from post #4.
/me rolls eyes
I actually thought the additional information i included may have helped the OP a bit??
