Transmission, Transfer Box and Diff types

[Warthog]

Moving the mounts isn't such a hassle, have done a couple of Mazda SL35TD engine conversions into Range Rovers in my younger days, concern with leaving the diffs as is would be fuel consumption over long distances, the lower ratio in the diff on the 2.8 will mean the 4.2 sits at higher rpm for given speeds, this can be solved in the Land/Range rover with the choice of transfer boxes there are, but I can only find one T/box for the GU Patrol, so no ratio changes....

Hi guys, Does anyone know the stock diff ratios for an 85 MQ shorty, L28?
I just bought it & intend to do it up with 35's, lift kit, V8 & an auto.
