Description

Overview

The G2 Axle and Gear 3.73 ring and pinion, part G/21-2151-373R, is a front Dana 44 AdvanTEK gear set. The product title and description place it in 2018–2022 Jeep Wrangler JL models.

The 3.73 is the numerically lowest ratio of the front Dana 44 sets in this group. It keeps engine speed lower at highway speed, at the cost of less low-speed torque multiplication.

The front Dana 44 sits at the steering end of the driveline, and its ring and pinion has to match the front carrier and housing exactly. Confirm the axle location and type on your vehicle before the gears are ordered.

Key features

  • Forged from 8620 steel for a strong base
  • Precision-machined to OE specifications using tight tolerances
  • Heat treated for durability in daily-driven use

Questions & Answers

Will the G2 3.73 front Dana 44 set fit a 2018–2022 Jeep Wrangler JL?

Based on the product title and description, yes, for the front Dana 44 AdvanTEK axle. The set is not described for 2007–2018 Wranglers, so confirm your year, model and trim before ordering.

Is a 3.73 ratio taller than a 4.88?

Yes. A 3.73 is numerically lower, so the engine turns more slowly at highway speed than with a 4.88, but the gears multiply less torque at low speed, which is the trade-off to weigh for your driving.

Are these front gears forged?

Yes. The G2 3.73 gears are forged from 8620 steel, precision-machined to OE specifications, heat treated and lapped on the mating surface for a smoother finish.
