Technical Ok model A guys ya ever seen this?

so I’m cleaning up my model A spring pack to go underneath the T roadster project and I find this. It looks to me that the spring says gm on it. It came out of a stock model A spring pack . What give here? I’ve come across Ford scripts all over old ford parts but never a gm.

 

Unless it's been altered by having the corners rounded, it might not be a Model A spring. All Model A spring leaves had "clipped" corners. Do you have a picture of the entire spring?

 

After 90 plus years anything goes

 

That stands for Good Metal.

On the other hand a farmer could add anything to increase a vehicle's weight bearing capacity. Where in the pack is it from?

p.s. An A spring in a T? It's usually the other way around.

 

I rounded the leaves.

 

It’s the second leaf just above the main leaf. As far as the t and a spring thing it’s a front spring.

 

Okay, that makes more sense.

 

Wasn't me! But I keep a number of spring leaves and use them when I tune a spring. I have a leaf from a '37 Chev in the pack on the front of my T Coupe.

 

I see 'CM' not GM. Tips of each letter are skewed a bit yet I see the letter C.

 

I also thought that but my mind kept going to gm.

 

I've seen this on Ford front springs as well. No idea what it means
