How to determine which gearing my buddy has

I am wondering how to tell what rear end my buddy has...is there a certain marking on the pumpkin that will tell us what it is?

if its the OEM gear there will be a badge on the rear end housing that will say which gear it is.

if its not stock put a line on the bottom of the tire left to right, then put a line on the bottom of the drive shaft front to back. than rotate the tire 1 full turn and count how many times the drive shaft goes around. exampe if u turn the tire 1 full turn and u count 3 full turns of teh drive shaft than 3/4 of a turn it has 3.73 gears.
