window slider blocks??? 700 1991

My '91 740 wagon has the sagging front power window problem frequently mentioned and after research and part purchase from IPD to replace the blue regulator "slider blocks" I opened the door panels to find that my care does NOT have these type of blocks but the "tuning fork" with plastic washer and clip design--nowhere are there these blue blocks.
Am I missing something or are these in later cars or something??
Thinking the regulator arms are loose where they intersect in the middle so I may replace anyway but kind of confused about these blocks.
Thanks.

The small blue blocks started in 93 I am pretty sure. I had one that had them. Earlier cars had the tuning forks.
I had some luck swapping forks from pass side/less use, cutting some from rear doors for the shorter ones, etc. Also moving the assembly a bit by ovalizing the mount holes.
