It's a 1.5 or 2 ton if it has 5 lug fronts and 10 lug wheels.

It's probably a 2 ton and not a 1.5 ton if the front hub caps are held on with a few screws, and not just a pressed on cap.

Also what does the tag in the door say it is?

You can quickly tell if it's a 48-53 or a 54-5 by the grill and windshield, 54-5 has single piece of glass for windshield.
