14 bolt
#11
I don't mean to discredit anyone, but I swapped my out my 10bolt for a 10.5" FF 14Bolt from a 2500HD I didn't have relocate the spring perches. That was the 1st thing I checked when looking into the swap.

If you get a 14 bolt sf from a earlier year like the obs trucks that came with the sf 6 lug 14 bolts the spring perches have to be moved and such. But if you could find a 14 bolt out of a vortech max it would be a direct swap

I’m not suggesting everyone run out and try to purchase from them, as for 1 I’m sure it’s not cheep and 2 if most folks were to put in the effort, they could have the same thing for way less. However for folks that don’t have the time or just don’t want the hassle of piecing together components and have the cash, Drivetrain dot com has a 14-Bolt 10.5” Conversion package that is built to replace the 10-Bolt ½ ton rear end using the original backing plates, brakes and six-lug wheels from your original axle. Like I said, it may just be an option for some that have more cash than time and don’t feel like hunting down a rebuild-able axle.
