That's what I'm trying to confirm.

I think the Chrysler manual calls it the "differential case", not the
"carrier". The pumpkin they call the "axle housing".

I am inclined to agree with you, but then I hafta buy a bunch more parts.

I'm not convinced this guy understands what is involved in gear set-up (no
insult intended Richard). One with that ability would not be asking some of
these questions (difference between carriers, housings, and bearings).

Just buy the 3.73's for the front. Yes, it is more expensive. BUT, if you
screw up the install, the TJ is still driveable, and its an upgrade. Don't
do a bunch of extra work for no improvement! Keep the LSD and the 3.73's,
upgrade the front gears and be happy.
