With todays HP/TQ, tranny gearing and better cooling I don't think rear gears are as important as they used to be. Manufactures aren't going to gear a truck to tow a lot and have it break down. It's pretty evident when Ram made upgrades to the 6.7 and 68RF tranny in 2013 that the gearing doesn't matter. My 12 2500 with 3.73's has a max tow of 12,400 while a 2013 3.42 has a max tow of 17,300. Same truck with different rear springs and upgraded cooling. I wouldn't sweat the gears personally.
