2.73's go on a 2 series carrier
3.42's go on a 3 series carrier
there are special 3.42's that go on a 2 series carrier, do you have those?

If you do have the right gears, you will also need a master rebuild kit ($80) and install will be about $300 includeing materials.

The Carrier Case is what you are going to need. You can run the open diff but of course you will losse the positraction or we can set you up with a thick gear that will fit your existing positracion carrier. Check out our website at http://www.jawsgear.com for pricing. We also price match any competitors price on rearend parts of the same brand.

Yes 3.42 ratio would have a 12 pinion and 41 ring gear combination.
