you can get the axel code from inside the door and look it up. I think all the ones that start with D are L/S but not sure
 






Jack up the truck high enough so that both wheels are off the ground. Turn one wheel, if the wheel on the opposite side turns in the same direction you got limited slip.
 






check the tag on the rear differential. it'll read either for example........3 55 88 = 3.55 gearing open diff and 8.8 axle or 3L5588 = 3.55 gearing l/s 8.8 axle
 






If you truly have a 4.10 axle and limited slip...the number will say "D2"
