You would need 2 springs, # 30776, for the 15K Reese 5th wheel hitch. One spring attaches to the handle assembly and the other is for the jaws of the hitch. Take a look at the picture I have included that shows the springs in their positions.
The Reese 15K hitch is no longer made so the stickers for it, when it was new, are not available. But if you can tell me the approximate age of the hitch or the part number if it is on it anywhere, I may be able to find some.
