I don't think its Land Rover.
Similar to a Salisbury diff but the pinion is all wrong and has cables that look like hand brake cable and Land Rover never had a handbrake on the wheels.
Axles ends/drive flange are also wrong for Land Rover.
Other than that not sure what it could be.

Looking at pics on ph so hard to see, but no solid axle landys had centred rear diff head, always offset to right

Yeah it could be any mid to large size car, van or ute as well.
You need to find some markings on it.

here's some more pics. I think PCD is 5 x 153 as accurate as my measuring tape is.

MAN produce hypoid diffs as well

I can't find anything with 5 on 153 PCD. There are 5 on 150 (

I am sure this isn't from a Bentley
