You can usually go by the serial number on the differential.

BTnnnnn or BTCnnnnn is a 3.7 ratio
CTnnnnn or CTCnnnnn is a 4.1.

Unless somebody switched the innards......

Otherwise, you can roll the car ahead in 4th gear for one FULL FAN
rotation,
then see how many turns the tires made.  Less than 4 would probably be the
3.7
and just more than 4 would be the 4.1
