The Range Rover and P5 diffs are interchangeable though the number of
locating pegs in the axle housing may differ, in which case you have to
drill an extra hole to suit. I fitted a 3.54:1 diff from a Range Rover
in my 1960 P5 3-Litre (manual transmission with OD). It now has an
amazing top speed, better fuel economy and acceleration is barely
compromised!

Hi Paul,
No, Mk. III's and P5B's used 3.54:1 with an automatic. I
always heard you could use Range Rover ring and pinion in
a P5 and vice versa, but there are some differences
somewhere and I'm not sure what they are.
