Front diff ratio on early UK classics?

I was under the impression that all UK/EU classic cars had a 3.9 front diff, 1.1 : 1 centre diff and a 3.545 rear diff.

I have the opportunity to get a broken gearbox from a UK MY95 with the gearbox code TY752VN3BA which according to This site suggests a 4.1 front diff and 1:1 centre diff.

So is it a 4.1? Or is the site not correct and its a 3.9?

Anybody know?

cheers

You're right first time,! 3.9 on all UK turbo cars. NO Doubt.

However, if we get a box that we are unsure of we always count the teeth on the crown wheel of the front diff.

See your other post for more.
