Don't know that they are all the same, but my 85 k10 Silverado swb has a 10 bolt.

I have no idea. I don't know much about rear ends. I was always more of a boob guy. Let's ask @bucket

It's a GM Corporate 10 bolt with an 8.5" ring gear. The bolts are standard thread. The front diff has a slightly different shaped cover, because the housing is shaped a little different on the top side.

Wax the chrome cover often, or it will quickly rust. Also seal it with RTV, not a gasket.
