Nice project you have going on here! As far as I know, all the crew cabs had the heavier 1 ton type frame because they only made 2 frames for crew cabs. A 2wd one, and a 4wd one. On my 76 on the rear suspension, I installed 4x4 spring hangers in the front, and did a shackle flip in the back. No block at all and it was cheap. I may have used the 2wd rear hanger too but I'd have to double check on that.
