Dexter brakes

So I ordered replacement brakes off of Amazon. The pictures of the brakes I have (2010 Casita 17' 3500# axle) shown on the Amazon site do not match what I received. I have 023-027 and 023-026 kits. I received K23-027 and K23 026 brakes.
There is a difference in the top spring design. Size matches.
Any one know if they are interchangeable?

I think some photos of the old and the new setups would help people help you a bit more.

Or links to the product.

According to Amazon both are 10 " brakes but one is 2.5 " wide the other is 3.5 " wide. #10 Dexter 3.5K axles use 2.5" wide brakes.

Yes. The Dexter brakes are 10x2.5. My question was simply are the single spring retractor brakes interchangeable with the 2 spring unit originally installed. I was inadvertently sent a set of single spring units to replace the 2 spring units and was looking for some quidance. If they work I would use them. If there is a functional issue I would return them.
