Default I'v got a gear ? Need help quick !

I bought a set of 4.10 gears out of a older jk (dana 30 front and 44 rear). My mechanic has my rear end tore apart and the bolt holes in he carrier are bigger than the bolts in the ring. Can somebody please give some advise ? I thought the gears from 2007 to 2013 where the same. He says everthing looks right except the holes. PLEASE HELP

What is the problem? And what parts do you need to complete the project?

No I have 3.73. The parts I'm. Trying to find are the shim's for the carrier holes the holes in the carrier are 1/2" and the bolts that came with the ring are 7/16". So it real sloppy. I need the shims to secure everything..
