Any idea of what size?

They mention they changed stock 4.11 gearing to 5.13, and then somewhere else it mentions the axle gearing was changed to 4.88. You'll have to excuse my noobness ... but is that the same thing? or are there two different areas to regear? or if they are talking about the same place which one seems more realistic?
