Was that the AT driveshaft, regular MT driveshaft, or thicker MT Sport driveshaft?

Also, see this thread for other weights:

The 88 SE didn't come with LSD. Anyway, it's the regular NA MT driveshaft. Thanks.

My 1Gen has a roll cage, but that doesn't mean that they came that way from the Mazda dealership. (Too bad, LOL)

The 88 SE did not come with LSD. If you look on the back of your differential and see a yellow tag on the fill plug that that says "LSD", then a previous owner added it to your car. If you don't see the tag, then either someone took it off, or you don't have an LSD.
