    This is going to be for road use mainly so a long 5th for the motorway will be good, not overly fussed on close ratio's.
    F16, F18 or F20

    F16 or F20 - they are virtually identical. A 4x4 F20 has a wider final drive so would be the best bet.

    Or you could always go for a F16WR but then it would be even slower
