First of all, I think 99% of the people here and anywhere will tell you it ain't worth the $ if you're only gonna go from 3.73 to 4.10. Maybe 3.21 to 4.10 or 3.73 to 4.56, but that swap you're looking at is alot of money for little increase in gearing.

That being said, if you're never gonna go above 33" on the tires, then 4.10 might be enough... but then again, so would 3.73's.

As far as what it'll cost ya. It depends on your local market. Expect about $200-$300 or so for each diff... plus gears and install kits.

Let us know what your plans are for your Jeep and you'll get better advice.

as mentioned, it really isn't worth the money. i'd save up until you can run bigger tires and then go 4.88 or even 5.13.
