235/75 stock, How big is this in English? - Ford Explorer Ranger Enthusiasts "Serious Explorations"®

I bought a 92' 4WD Explorer this past weekend and it's up on 33's. The door sticker says that factory tires were 235/75. How big is this in English? I'm curious how much different my rig is then stock because I'm considering gearing and I'm not sure how low to go. My axle code is D4 which I found on the forum to be limited slip 3200 3:73. I don't know what the 3200 stands for but I was considering going to 4:10s but now that I see I already have 3:73s I'm wondering if that will be much of a difference. I'm not rock crawling with this, I just want something to tow 3 dirt bikes with up decent sized grades without totally working the tranny. Any info on your opinions about gearing and letting me know the english equivlent of that tire would be great.
