The ratio for 1 range is 2.785, that for reverse is not quite so low at 2.272. Effectively they are different cogs.

The ratio would not be the same as 1st because it would depend on the number of teeth on the reverse cog. But as you say, my supposition was most likely incorrect. Things I have read about old 4MT boxes almost certainly don't apply to the 4EAT.
