You are correct I already had 3.73 so that never crossed my mind.
I went with G2 ring and pinion set mainly because of the free diff covers as I was going to buy some anyway and they are around $100-$150 apiece so I couldn't pass it up.
I believe you have standard gears in the rear jk d44 and reversed up front in the jk d30.

No you already have axles you need the Ring gear and the pinion gear for the rear jk dana 44 for the front dana 30 the gear spins in the oppisite direction so it will be a reversed jk dana 30 ring and pinion gears sols as a set in different ratios but for the dana 30 you need a new carrier if you plan on going above 3.73 that is where the cut off is 3.73 and up or 3.73 and down. You don't need axles unless you plan on upgrading to D44's front and rear.

So what y’all are saying is only a front carrier is needed if you have 3.21 gears. I’m in the process of getting all the parts together to regear my 2011 jk I have 3.21s and have 4.56 gears already ordered with master overhaul kits I just need to know if I need new carriers for the front and rear or only the front
