If you look in the wiki in the Jimny information section all the ratios are there

Look up a site called grimjeeper it's a gearing calculator that allows you to input everything including main gearbox ratios transfer ratios diff ratio and tyre size and gives you wheel speed and engine rpm tables.

Start with what year, engine and manual/auto you have, that usually points to the gearbox, transfer box and diffs fitted to it. If your pre 2005 its almost certainly the 3.9 ratio (if manual gearbox). after that year is usually 4.3.

Use the numbers you found in the link to input into grimmjeeper gear calculator (google it). It has a side by side comparison, showing wheel revolutions amongst other info. Very useful site. When I use it I try to compare my modified car to a standard one in the hope of keeping the gearing about right for all the changes.

To answer your original question.

2 turns on the rear prop and one turn on the wheel is 2:1.

As you can see, there is no diff ratio of 2:1, there is only 3.90 and 4.090

Which would be 3.9 turns of the prop to one of the wheel or 4.090 turns of the prop to one of the wheel.

It will be 3.9

Going on low range will make no difference, the diff is after the transfer box.

Trying to see the rotation difference between 3.9 and 4.09 is difficult

If you thoroughly clean the carrier case you can sometimes read the part number stamped on it
