you can get rough country with a military wrap....they dont look liek bds to me... most companys use 6 spring packs or 5 for most aftermarket company thats worth anything
 
I wanted to say they could be the rare, discontinued Rancho Mud Bogger springs but no, they can't be. The Rancho MB's have 9 leaves total and the military wrap, too, but the spring wraps are different than what yours show.

I have a pair of these Rancho MB springs in the storage shed. They are 6" springs and no, not for sale. I got them off eBay for fairly reasonable. These springs are a firm ride and very, very rare nowadays.

Could they be Military springs? I'm pretty sure I've seen 7 leaves on the M1009.:confused:

On the front? Nope, don't think so. Factory front springs are either 2 or 3 leaf design.
 
In the end what difference does it make? Run them, if you don't like them find some that you do like.:D

I've never seen Trailmaster to make front springs with that many leaves. The most TM leaves I've seen or read were 5 leaves.

Back in the 80's and 90's, I used to collect catalogs from all the major lift manufacturers. I studied the part numbers and their dimensions along with vital info like number of leaves, arch, eye-to-eye specs, etc., etc. I still have some of these catalogs left especially the older ones. I tossed out a bunch of them once I found how valuable the internet is.
