'74 142 rear-end swap 140-160

'74 142 GL with M41: I have a 4.3 ratio rear-end and would like a little more speed with less rpm. Is there a complete rear axle from other 140 series or early 240 that I could swap as an entire unit? It is my DD, so can't live with taking its rear-end to send out for diff rebuild. What ratio is most appropriate 4.10, 3.91 other?
