Diff filler plug - where is it?

I'm about to change the oils in both diffs and the main gearbox(manual). I can see the drain plug for each diff, but can't find a fill plug on either. Does anyone have the Land Rover Tech Reference sheets for this job? I've got the Oil Spec (SAF XO) and quantities (0.61 front, 1.1 rear), but just can't find which hole to put it in

Any ideas if this can be done without lifting the car off the ground. I have a couple of car ramps and some blocks of wood I can drive the car onto to raise it about 25cm. will that give enough clearance. Duncan

Wiggs, you're a gent

Many thanks.

Dunc - access is OK in Off Road Height, and even better on ramps. I figured for the sake of 20 quids worth of diff oil it was worth doing, especially as I'm underneath doing the fuel filter anyway. (@84K miles). I don't like leaving oils in place for 150k miles or 10 years
