2 and 4 wheel drive front leaf spring differences

On 70's F600 and F700 is there a difference in arch between 2 and 4 wheel drive respective models?

I'm thinking there is No difference at all in the Front springs.
I'm thinking the higher ride height come from the axle designs being totally different.

1971 was the first year that F600's were available with factory installed 4WD

No F700 of any year was available with factory installed 4WD
