There's usually a "c" clip around the rod of the axel you pop the c clip loose and the axel should slide right out of the differential
Yes. I own a 1993. Stock they have a locking diff that only works in super low, but if you remove a pin from the 2wd/4wd gear selector they have a locking differential in every gear of the subtransmission
The axels connect the differential to the wheel.

The locking differential came on some of them. To determine if a particular Blazer has a locking differential you need to look for code "G80" on the RPO list. The RPO list is on a sticker in the glove compartment.
Just pull it out. There should be nothing holding it in the differentail after you remove the locking hub and the hub.
Differential lock is a driver controlled locking mechanism which locks the speed differentiation of axle halfshafts in differential mechanisms.After locking, both wheels rotate in same speed.But the interaxle differential(IAD) lockstopsthe speed differentiation of two axles in Tandem axle vehicles by locking the inter axle differential(third differential),after locking IAD both pinions rotate in same speed.

Jack up the front of the car, put in nuetral, and spin one wheel. If the opposite wheel spins the same way, you have locking differential.
whichever it originally came with. the locking was not so common.
F-150 has never had a locking differential until the 2009 F-150 FX4 model. Only choices before the 2009MY was a limited slip or open differential.
It depends on what you mean by "truck". Most of the ones like dodge ram 1500s or ford f150/250(or etc.) have two axels. One in the front and one in the rear. There also has to be one differential per axle.
Check VIN number. If VIN ends with "A" it's an open diff. If last letter of VIN is "V" it's an LSD, limited slip or locking differential.
