wrong spring ?

i went to O'riely's and ordered two super coil springs (moog) but after reading i found the part #7226s, but the # they ordered was 5716s, is this a new part # or the wrong spring ? i cant afford have my truck tore down waiting on new springs.

89 d350 dually

Wrong springs! The correct springs are the 7226S for the 2wd coil springs. These will make your front end sit up pretty level. Take a peak at the link in my sig or gallery and you can see what the do. I do not know what the other number is to.

Well i got the springs in and it sits 3 inches higher no real differance in the ride really,,im very pleased, but according to the moog book i checked with two places the correct spring for a 89 one ton dually is 5716 s,,its a super duty spring,,car quest and
o'reilies said the 7226s was for a gasser,so might need check if you are planning on new springs.
