Nice lookin truck. I'd dump those conti tracs, my boss had them on his and you could run over a McDonalds straw and put a hole in the side wall.
Take a pick of the door plate where it says GVW, WB, etc, and we can decode.

I know, has to be the worst tire ever. They are especially bad on the freeways around here with the paralell grooves cut into the road. Makes the truck feel like it's sliding left and right.
I will take a pic.

If you don't tow and you have 3.31 you should be ok as you really wouldn't desire the 3.73s unless you wanted better acceleration.
You should get a little better MPG with the 3.31s as opposed to the 3.73s.

----------------That's the truth, our 2007 expedtion eddie bower had a right rear sidewall blow out in town at 35 MPH with ONLY 26000 mile's on them ,alway's kept them at 44 PSI,that's the pressure on the sidewall,put Michlin LTX AS'S on and now find out the sidewall PSI is only 35 lb's,now I wonder if I screwed up buying them,how can the same size "light truck" (LTX) tire carry less air than the POS conti's ford put on???????.

The correct pressure is 35psi for those tires. Pressure is on the sticker on the drivers door frame.
