It could be a NP203 case as well, those are full time. If your truck is part time then yes its a NP205.

did the NP203's have a 4x4 indicator light on the bottom center of the dash? Wasn't this kinda useless since 203's are fulltime?

I think the light was a "lock" indicator, so you didn't forget to unlock the t-case when you got back on the road.
