Your method will work- IF- it has sure grip positraction. ( when one wheeel 
is turned, the other wheel will turn in the same direction)   Make a mark on 
the driveshaft and count the number of turns it makes to one revolution of 
the tire. Figger the driveshaft into1/10 increments and it will get you very 
close to all known ratios that are available. ie : a little over 3 and 2/10 
turn of the driveshaft = 3:23 ratio-- 3  and a little over 7/10 turns = 3:73 
ratio
If you do not have positraction ( tires off the ground and turn in oposite 
direction  to the other tire)  I think if you have both tires on the ground 
, move it straight forward and count your driveshat turns to one tire turn , 
it will give you the ratio...............................MO
