what you have to do is get 3 series gears and use a ring gear spacer or order a set of "thick" gears. they make gears thicker to use with a 2 series carrier. when you order the gears just tell them you need the thickert gears for a 2 series carrier and they will help you get exactly what you need

Do your 10 bolt a favor and switch to a diff girdle while you're swapping out gears.
