Well, maybe they are going to send you a spacer, I personally don't like them, and won't use them.

10bolt carriers split at 2.56 & down / 2.76 & up.

12bolt trucks split at 2.73 & down / 2.76 to 3.42 / 3.73 & up

My recommendation is to talk to www.randysringandpinion.com  I have had excellent service from them, and they know their stuff.  They have a 4x4 sale going on right now too.
