Possible Posi or LS stock for 85 PU?

Our 85 seems to have some kind of posi or LS. I have done some research and it doesn't seem that they ever came wit any kind of traction package. Is there a possibility that it was a special order option?

what's the axle code on it?

snippets:

Final Position - number of pinions in the carrier

3 = 2 Pinions (LSD)
(I've not ever seen this code in a pickup/4Runner)

5 = 4 Pinions (LSD)
(I've not ever seen this code in a pickup/4Runner)
