2.73s'(and 3.08s') is on a 2 series carrier,3.23s'(and 3.42s') is on a 3 series carrier. The "for 3.23 and up carriers" is the standard set,you need the 'thick' set. 3.42s,3.73s' and 4.10s are made for both carriers,the 'regular' set and the thick set.

I was Just looking at Jegs and all the 3.73 gears said the "for 3.23 and up" line.. So i need to find a 3.73 7.625 thick? Regular wont work?

Yes. BUT it doesn't state who is the manufacturer is of the gearset or of the bearings.

Of my references of the two gearsets in post #4,one is a Jegs 'house' brand and the other is Richmond. Richmonds' are typically known to be 'noisy'.
Other retail outlets have bigger choices,of which Motives gear brand and kits containing Timken bearings are preferred.
