Is this where it says what the gears are, because definitely says 2.72 for ratio

Pretty sure your looking at the transfer case there....that's different from your gear ratios on your front and rear differentials. Like I said, if you register your jeep on the site I gave, it will list your gear ratio that came from the dealership...it'll make your life a lit easier....

I just had my 35's mounted thinking I had 3.73 gears but today I jacked it up and marked the drive shaft and spun the wheel to see what I had. Turns out I have 3.21's. That being said I haven't really noticed much difference in driving. I do have a 6 sp and I drive fairly light on the gas. What am I missing? Also not sure if I have an open diff or limited slip. Only 1 wheel spun with both off the ground. I blocked the right side and the left still spun freely. Open diff?
I have a tow package which I thought automatically upgraded me to the 3.73's. Any insight would be appreciated.
