I received my leaf springs for my 1970 Bee however, one side has 7 leafs springs while the other has only four. I checked my originals ones and both have five. The car was an original 3.23 open diff however, now it is an 3.55 posi. Can somebody help?

I thank you all in advance,
Ed
 
Most of the heavy duty, or high performance suspensions will have 7 and 6 spring sets. 5 and 5 may have been stock on a standard 383 Bee, I'm not sure, but 7 and 4 I haven't heard of before.
 
My stock 440 rr has 5 full and 2 half leaves on the pass side, and 6 leaves on drivers. Seven (depending on how you count) is normal, four leaves on drivers with seven on the pass side is not correct. Phone call time.
