yes most late model (1960's) m38a1s and m170's had posi rear ends but this is only factory on usmc contract jeeps meaning not on ordinance (army)procured jeeps that was handed off to the usmc . Only usmc special contract jeeps from the 60's.

Lockers, NO. Limited slip Powr-Lok's YES. The M38A1 and M170 USMC contracts were shipped with them. Any US Army units that were transferred to the USMC in the late 60's thru early 70's and were overhauled at San Diego got all the same parts as the post 1960 USMC issue jeeps.
