1971 Jimmy suspension question

I purchased another 1971 Jimmy five years ago, and parked it in the garage. I want to start next week working on suspension. I was told it was stock, but I don't remember a 2" block on the rear suspension of my other one. The Jimmy does not set that high, I would appreciate any feedback.

That's not original. My 70 had the axle perch right against the spring.

It probably had the typical rear spring sag and someone installed the homemade blocks to make it sit level again.
