Front Axle Help

I picked up my order today down at Graves for my new front axles, and they gave me the ones for the locking differential. Is there an easy way to tell whether or not the Max has it? I heard him say something about checking a sticker on your transmission, but I wasn't sure.

Chances are you don't have a locking diff. Which means one side isn't going to fit. I don't remember, but I think it's the drivers side. Somebody correct me if I'm wrong here.

Yes, it's drivers side. Okay that's what I thought. I just ordered another part and we're going to do a trade in an hour or so. Thanks a lot bud.
