Suspension question

I have a 2007 F-250 PSD Lariat SC FX4 short bed with the 9800 lb. GVWR. When I looked under the rear to check the blocks under the springs it looks like I have the four inch blocks like one would find on an F-350, instead of the two inch blocks.

Am I correct in assuming that this is due to the 9800 lb. rating? I was thinking of changing out the blocks to the larger F-350 ones, but now it looks like they are already there.

Am I seeing this right or am I measuring them incorrectly?

Not sure about the spring perch. Guess I'll have to go measure it again.

Thanks.

I highly doubt that it has different blocks. If it does then they're probably still smaller than those found on an F-350.
