pull the cover it's way easier and more accurate that looking around for the codes.

Pull the cover:

Count teeth on ring and divide by pinion
or:
Find the gear ration stamped on the ring gear(if its there) and divide.


Or mark a wheel stud and count how many times the yoke turns to complete one revolution of the wheel stud.

Ie 3 1/4 turns = 3:23

3.5 = 3:42

Less than 3 = 2:73

later
