JA and JB have the small diff so anything out of one of those will fit, lsd and non lsd tubes are the same.

My old JB numbered #219, built 7/85 had the large diff. That was verified by Coltspeed!

With the Vin No of #157, I reckon that Tomsun's JB has the larger diff!!

Measure the length of your Torque tube. If it's around 40cm's, then it's the large diff and shorter T/Tube.....

It's interesting to see what you have. Technically speaking, the large diff was introduced in mid '85.

my white JB, build date july 85, vin number 210, D60 option, had the small LSD....

EVERY other JB i've ever seen has had the small diff. i'm thinking the big diff was swapped into yours?

The maroon jb i had was number 159 and that had a small lsd so I think tomsun would have a small lsd too.
