WAG but i'd bet the ratio is stamped on it, something like 13:43, or you can count teeth and do the math

Yup, I know mine were stamped on the ring gear. The numbers you gave have 2 and then a space and then a 77 so I would guess 2.77 since that is a possible and probably the most common gear ratio that would make since. Oh, and also Miles knows his 9 bolts.
