no, Hi range in all transfercases are 1:1 ratios, thats why it does not gear the truck down any when engaged. The gears in the tcase couldnt be 3.73 or it would be like having the truck in Hi range, the transfercase would be matching 3.73 rotations of the output shaft which in turn is the same as the axle grear. So as long as both axles are 3.73 or what ever, your good
