As usual, I've got an opinion on this. You would pick the strongest torque on the engine... see https://landroverforums.com/forum/di...ighlight=crank

Just a quick note about sockets. One of the few good deals I have gotten at Harbor Freight was a set of larger deep well IMPACT SOCKETS. They are a heavy construction, not chrome plated, will take a lot of torque since they are made for impact wrenches. They do come in larger sizes, which I needed for changing my rear drive shaft over to a 98 to get away from the damaged rubber coupler.
Like Buzz and Spike have let us know, there are some simple shortcuts. I have used a simiular technique where I placed a hydraulic jack under the breaker bar and jacked a nut or bolt loose. A little more control and finesse than the bump starter method.
Whatever you do, keep it as square as possible (socket to nut).
