Post Differential Carrier Size.

I was looking at a set of Richmond Gears and was wondering if i need to worry about carrier size when buying gears?

Yes, buy the set for a 7.5" or 7.625" ring gear for a 10 bolt

I wasn't sure on this, because Richmond makes a 2 series and 3 series for the 10 bolt. 2 series is for 3.08 and numerically lower carrier and 3-Series fits 3.23 and numerically higher carrier.... I wasn't quite sure what this meant and was looking for some input. Thanks

By the looks of your sig, I'll say you have a factory 6 speed car. That means you have 3.42s so you will need gears a 3 series carrier.
