Look for a metal tag on your differential cover.
You may see all kinds of numbers but look for:
3.54 or 3.73 or 4.11 or 4.56 that will be the gear ratio. If that tag is gone jack up the rear and climb under the drive shaft.
Put a piece of tape on the very bottom of the sidwall of your tire and another piece on the bottom of the drive shaft. Turn the tire one revolution while counting the number of turns on the drive shaft. If the drive shaft turns 4 and a half times for every tire revolution you have 4:56 gears. If it turns 3 and 3/4 you have 3:73 gears. You will want to do it a few times but you can check it this way and be dead on.
