with the limited slip carrier you can mark the driveshaft and make a mark on the tire.
Rotate tire 360 and count driveshaft rotations
Yours will go 4 and then stop, clearly 4.10 ratio
If the axle was an open carrier (no limited slip traction device) then it would require you to turn the tire twice and count the rotations to get the full 4.1 turns
3.5 turns is 3.55, 3.75 turns is 3.73 and so forth
we don't need no stinkin tags!!
Look into the diff covers that not only have the drain port but also have the main bearing cap support girdles :)
Summit has these, Ford SVO used to make them too......
