bulbs: turn signal & running light number

Hey guys, I got an easy one for you. On my '59 fleetside, what number bulbs are needed for the front turn signal bulbs/ running lights? 1157 or 1156?
Thanks
Tod

Re: bulbs: turn signal & running light number

1157 has 2 filaments for run and turn up front or stop and turn in back
1156 is a single filament bulb for use in fender mounted turn signals on big trucks
