gvw confusion

I have 3 f-350 dually single cabs, all with dana 70's. All 3 have 10,000lb gvw;s. I'm now looking at a crew cab f-350 dually with a dana 70 and same basic spring stack, but it's gvw is 9100?? could this be due to the longer wheel base? that's all i come up with,because i also looked at a single rear wheel f-350 crew with a dana-70 and its gvw is 6700, and i know i've had f-350 single cabs-srw with around 9000 gvw. and i'm talking all are rear wheel drive.

I bet all 3 of those with a 10,000 lb Gvwr are Chassis cabs and not Pickups?

That's the difference

as far as i can tell ,im comparing apples to apples, same spring stack-overloads,appears to be same breaks,same dana 70's. HOWEVER,do the cab/chasis have a heavier frame?? could this be a dually add-on ,and if so ,what is my best way too tell?
