The rear end ratio is 3.73 for auto trannies(V-6).The t-case adds another 2.72:1 reduction in 4lo.

With the '02, 3.7 automatic, with the 45RFE transmission, NV242 or NV231 transfer case, and 3.73 gears, the final drive ratio is 11.19:1 in high range, and 30.32 in low range. Mine, with 4.10's is at 12.30:1 in high range, and 33.33:1 in low range. With the 42RLE transmission and 3.73's it 10.59:1 high range, and 28.71:1 low range. With 4.10's, 11.64:1 high, and 31.56 low.

Is that for the 02? I have an 05 now but I used to have the 02. It seems that the 02 was a lot lower than my 05.

That's because the '02 KJ's have the 45RFE which has a 3:1 1st gear ratio,the '03+ KJ's with the 42RLE tranny has a 2.84:1 1st gear ratio.Also the 45RFE has a 3:1 reverse,42RLE has a 2.21:1 reverse,45RFE has a 0.75:1 O/D,and the 42RLE has a 0.69:1 O/D ratio.

I like the '02 setup better too. Just wish it had the 2nd overdrive ratio of .67 like the 545RFE for the interstate.

Would switching the tranny work or would the computer have fits?

Well the 45RFE has a seperate TCM unlike the 42RLE has the TCM intergrated into the PCM,so yes the PCM would have a fit.
