I have these springs in my collection, I THINK they came off an emergency brake band in one of the 2 rearends I took apart. Not sure they are meant to be in an AA. Anyone recognize them?

They are the same length and identical, camera makes them look different....

Well me and another guy looked thru a few ford parts books and cant find them. Must have been random springs to make a "farmer fix".

They do look familiar tho like I've seen them somewhere in a catalog before. The guy also thought hes seen them somewhere before too...
