Yep no dropside. It had a tank in it, hard telling when they swapped the bed. Can anyone tell if its an airshift transfercase from the pictures?

I am curious about the air shift as well I am fairly new here and have heard the term before. when they say air shift do they mean air actuated front diff? so you can turn it on and off as compared to when it slips its in?

Uses a sprag clutch. When there is a difference in speeds between rear output and front the sprag engages locking the front axle output. If im missing something please jump in.

The picture of the interior in the first post shows the air shift transfer case switch mounted below the instrument cluster.
Truck is equipped with air shift. I have a original "73 dropside that is equipped with air shift. I like the red w/ lights and sirens.
