Default Build sheet question

In my request for my 2011 JKU build sheet for the axles the rear has 3.73 gears. It says Dana 44 axle. So does that mean I can only go up in gears to what a 44 could hold? I'm new to the gearing stuff but would like to know more. The front being a 30, is that something that should be upgraded eventually? Thanks guys.

You got the same gears (373) up front in the D30 and in back D44. Both can be upgraded to larger gears. Welcome to the forum.

Thanks Gman! I wasn't sure if the front had the 373 or not. Good to know.
