    dude, if your gonna ask that question you gotta post a pic of your diff at least, or check out one of the other posts that have asked the same question and compare.

    Are there any stickers on the dash that say ABS/IRS , or Radial tuned suspension or anyting ?

    its a exec. its not irs dude.


    look under it... if it has a diff or if it has a box with two indiviual arms coming out of it on a angle.

    but exec + radial tuned suspension = normal diff non irs

    3.9??
    sure its not 3.08?

    and unless its a BT1 I bet it would be non-irs as above.
    (I have VR 5.0L exec BT1 and it has LSD, IRS)
