does my truck....
have an LSD?
how can i tell? would there be a code in the VIN or anything? i looked for tags on the diff cover and axle but i didnt find anything on the rear.... there was a DANA stamp on the front and a tag with a bunch of numbers but over the years, it got hard to read.

RE: does my truck....
Call your local parts dept with the VIN and askif it is the open or limited slip rear.(If they get ****ty, tell 'em you want to know so you get the right parts when you order them from them.BS 'em a little if you have to.)
The axle codes off of the front will do nothing for you as the fronts NEVER have limited slip.

i knew the front was open but it seemed strange to me that the front cover would have stampings and the rear would be blank...

I know on my '04, there is a plug going into the top of the "pumpkin" that controls the LSD....Yours may be different, but a plug going into the top is a good clue.
