Check what you ordered, make sure they're for a 4x4. They MAY have sent you the wrong ones, or you may have ordered the wrong ones.

IMO, you shouldn't have to do major tweaks to get them to fit. Dimple a tube, maybe. Hitting the driveshaft, no. The exhaust shop may have said no due to cost. I'm sure they "could" have fixed it, but it may have cost triple the cost of correct pipes.
"free" doesn't always save you money.
