Hilux diffs are G series. This means you can grab the gears and/or centre from any Toyota with a G series diff and swap them into your housing. This gives you a pretty broad selection of OEM and aftermarket stuff.
If you want taller gearing and LSD you should consider sourcing an MA70 Supra turbo diff, which will have 3.7:1 gears and a clutch-type LSD. Your current diff probably has 4.8:1 gears, so that will bring the highway revs way down.
As for rear discs, I can't see the point on a Hilux with an 18R but it can be done. Do a search, it's been covered in detail and I believe there's even a tech article on it.
