easiest way would be to get the RPO numbers from the sticker in glovebox, and search on here for RPO decoder. It will tell you what the truck came with!

RE: what axle do I have

The RPO decoder will only tell you what gear ratio you have and if you have the locker or not...

Your front diff should be a 7.2" IFS it'll be either aluminum, or iron, use a magnet to find out for sure...

Also, you should have a 7 5/8" rear diff... I don't think there was any other options for that year...
