new spring question

I just got a new set of leaf springs and one of them, the outermost spring is larger. Is this supposed to go on the drivers side for torqe?

Thanks ahead of time...Jay...

That doesn't sound right to me...you might call the manufacturer.

It might help if you included info about your truck (model, year, etc.)

Sorry, didnt think it mattered.

It is a 94 Xcab pickup. It has a 4" lift on it now and I am putting a set of 2" NWOR and 2" lift shackles.
Again one leaf pack has one larger leafe on it . I am wondering which side it goes on?
Peace...Jay....

Nope, sounds like they made a mistake.

(On the 84-85s the drivers side front spring is different than the pass side. But the rear springs are always identical - all years, as far as I've ever heard.)

The first thing you should do is contact whoever you got them from. They should have part numbers on them, write those down and call the supplier or manufacturer.
