Is this a semi float rear axle?

Can anyone easily tell by looking at this photo if this van has a semi-float or full-float rear axle? It’s a 2010 E-350 pass van with a V10.

You can't tell without taking a rear hubcap off. I believe all E350's after about 05 are FF axles

Actually it's the other way around.

As mentioned, need to pull the hub cap to determine if it is a FF or SF.

Re: determining FF by model/year, etc. - good luck. Ford often states that a particular model came with a FF as a stock specification. That is often enough not the case in reality.

Unless someone showed me the actual OEM VIN build sheet for the van, or a picture with the hub visible, I would not put any confidence in knowing what rear axle was present.
