Freelander Differential Flange

A very quick check... can anyone shed any light on why my (Westfield supplied) 2001 Freeloader differential has a 92mm dia flange, 4 bolt (9.7mm) 76mm PCD. Those nice people at Bailey have this as the 'Rover' flange measurement. Bailey's Freelander measurement is 97mm dia, 4 bolt (10.1mm) 75mm PCD.
Given that after work tonight I'm going home to measure, measure, measure and make sure, it's not a MegaPanic - but I'd feel a lot more at ease if someone was to say "no, you're not drunk, later Freelanders had a different flange, you CAN use a ruler"

Thanks for that, however I believe I've got this sorted (well, hope so, the prop design is in the factory) after a few HSD's last night. Seems I DO have a Freeloader flange on my Freeloader diff., its's just that the flange must have been machined down at some point - to the 'Rover' size. Took a lot of cross-eyes to be sure of the difference between 75 and 76mm PCD.
Time to start on the electrickery.
