If the PO doesn't know whats under the hood, he probably doesn't know what transmission is in it nor if it's a 2wd or 4wd

Ask them if there was ever anything done to the engine, as in a swap out.
If they say no, it's a 6.9 as said earlier.

83-86 should either have a T-19 four speed manual or a C6 three speed automatic, regardless of two or four wheel drive.

Front axle (if 4wd) could be a D44HD or D50 if its an F250, or a D60 if its an F350.

Rear axle would be either a Sterling 10.25" or Dana 60

Transfer case would either be a Borg-Warner 1345 or a 1356. The 1356 has a fixed rear yoke and the 1345 has a slip yoke.

My 1356 transfer case is a slip yoke, I think they could be had either way?
