I vote pull the cover off,get the numbers from the ring gear,and while you're at it you change the gear oil (probably needed it anyway) and the differential cover gasket.If you need to know 100% positive what the ratio is,you need to just do that and know the ratio and not estimate with the jack it up,spin the tire,and count method.Just my 2 cents.
