Hi Wayne,
As Jon says above, whilst you'll get away with putting auto 4.1 ratio diffs into a manual if you don't want high speed cruising or you're fitting taller tyres, manual 3.7 ratio diffs in an auto won't work at all well - you'll probably end up overheating the transmission.
AFAIK it breaks down like this, for turbo diesel 80s at least:
All euro spec manual 80s came with 3.7 ratio diffs.
All auto 80s worldwide came with 4.1 ratio diffs.
SOME Australian and 'general area' spec manual 80s had 4.1s, possibly some JDM spec had these too.
If you're lucky enough to find that you're manual is an import with 4.1s then swap the complete axles over.
If not and you're going to be extreme off-roading you might ultimately be better off going for ARB air-lockers in the unlockered car, if you can find someone who really knows what they are doing to fit them (poor fitment seems to be the cause of almost all airlocker problems).
Hope this helps,
Toby
