Would 3.73's run 33's? 'i'm planning on upgrading to 5.13 in the future, but will the 3.73's run 33" decently for now?

Decently with the OD button turned off....But when going up hills I would have to play with the skinny pedal just to get the RPM up and not have the JK lag....I recently upgraded to 5.13s and wished I had done that mod sooner....Now the Jk with the new gearing & 33s is so much more enjoyable to drive...The JK cruises effortlessly and has more then enough ummpphhh when I need it...
