any 3.5 10 spline diff will do(defender ,disco rrc) but for rear one, with a filler in diff housing if possible as axle case wont have a filler plug in rear diff pan as later axles had ,although you can fit your own filler plug/hole, this is the reason early rrc diffs were used as they had filler in diff housing too ,front and rear diffs are identical

first gear will be useable ,about 30% extra gearing,will help economy on long runs
