Another way involves zero driving. But a helper.
Jack up rear of car.
Place on stands. Chock front wheels
Mark DS with marker of choice.
Rotate wheel one revolution while counting rotations of DS. You will need to relate the last revolution of the DS to a percentage of a full revolution to determine accurately. However if you do indeed have a 4.10 final drive it will be obvious
