Default Leaf springs

Does anyone know from what year fits for leaf springs... just wondering if the 99-2000 leaf springs from an expedition will fit my f150 4x4 4.6 Super-crew, some research showed that they are the same wheel base.. but I want to make sure before buying used ones, any help would be appreciated.. thanks

thought of just replacing all the bushing on both leaf spring.. then if it don't get rid of the squeaking noise then i just wasted $ 100.00:

You check your U joints? If there dried up then your going to get a squeak also ball joints
