Still no tag or plate?
Jack up the rear axle and place the transmission in neutral. Turn one wheel (by hand). If the other rear wheel goes same direction, it's a limited slip. If it goes the opposite way, it's open.

Excellent. Make sure you post back on the original thread (creeking) once you know if the problem is resolved or not. I'm sure you will not be the last person to have this problem.
Have a great weekend!
