Section HH of the Workshop manual! Most just swap the complete final drive assembly - plenty available second hand if you don't mind the 'common' ratios of 4.55 and 4.22. The less common 3.9 and the (now) rare 3.7!

Certainly wasn't a 'standard fit' in an A35 van! Are you SURE it's 3.7 ?? Post up the ratio numbers on the gears.
If so - plenty on here will have it from you! In fact - stand back so you don't get crushed in the rush.
