Default Locker Chrysler 8.25 question

I got a quick question. Did 98 Cherokees with 8.25 rear end come with posi lock or anything. I jacked up rear end I spin one tire they both move even if I have someone hold one side I haven't taking off diff cover yet cuz weather has been ****ty out. I was just wondering because I hope the previous owner( teenager) didn't weld the rear end.

There was a limited slip option, but if it ratchets or chirps tires turning it's locked or welded.

Yes a limited slip was a factory option in the 8.25, my 97 country edition came with the limited slip 8.25.
