They're pretty rare. Most 9" are 3.50, 3.25 or 3.00.

I'd count the teeth if I were you.

Early model Broncos came with standard 3.50 and optional 4.11 ratio on the V8's and standard 4.11 and optional 4.57 on the inline 6's. '78/'79 Broncos were also offered with optional 4.11 ratio.

Seems strange to me that later the 300 CID I6 usually came with numerically lower gears than V8's on the same trucks.
