Yes, for the D30 the carrier break is 3.73. This is generally the break for D44's also, but JK's use thick gear sets.

Just FYI I just got 4.10's and plan on installing them from 3.21's. I need only the front carrier and install kits correct?

Seriously congrats on the find. I will let you get this one figured out then I will get some.
Doc I have not found them yet... I have found a couple guys who are getting new gears
that said I could get their old ones. But I have yet to hear back from them.
Anyway Doc, you know me... You'll have a new Jeep and have it all decked out before
I can get this accomplished.

To my knowledge, all JK's use a 2.72-3.73 carrier in back, and for the 4.10's they use a 'thick' gear set. This lets you use 4.10's on a 3.73 carrier.

Yes, I believe you are correct, which is why I can get away with the 3.73 down Locker I'll be putting in the back.
