That info should be on the vehicle info label located on your driver side door jamb. There is a code for the rear axle type and ratio.

My 1993 F150 has an axle type (19) on the door pillar sticker. Was is this? This is a 4x4 and it sure acts like there is a posi in the rear. Best four wheel drive in two wheel I've ever owned.
