I pulled the rear spring out yesterday for a chsck and clean, l found the letters and numbers on the top spring and wonder what they refer to ??
1913 rear 7 leaf spring
L - l'll assume being on the "left" it means that.
10-10 l have no idea.
The leather pad ( or remnants of seem to have been rivitted together , a thick and thin piece laminated together.

I believe you are missing the top leaf! Most T's have an 8 leaf rear spring. The leather pad is the way they came from the factory, and is correct with the riveted pads on each end.

Sorry, Larry you are correct, 8 on the back.
