Default Did i purchase the correct ring & pinion gear?

my car started off with 2.73 so im guessing its the 2 series carrier. so i purchased richmond 4.10 7.624 10 bolt 2 series. Is this correct? And now that i will have the rear end pulled out should i replace anything besides gears, fluid and gaskit? Thanks

Or get the back end up in the air and turn the driveshaft and count how many times the rear tires turn per driveshaft revolution
