3.73 gears

ok, so if someone was selling 3.73's but for a 12 bolt while mines a 10 bolt, they would still work on my car?

Uhhh... No. You have a 10 bolt meaning there are 10 bolts in your ring gear. a 12 bolt has 12 of them(hence the name 12 bolt!). the 10 bolt you have is a 7.5" while a 12bolt is 8.5" I think.
