I *think* they are both 8.5 and should interchange. But Im not 100% sure on this. A couple of the front 10 bolts that I parted, I sold the carriers on ebay and a few of them were putting them in rears. Im not sure of the year tho.

I seem to remember the newer 10 bolt is 8.6" not 8.5 like the earlier one.

Looks like you would be dealing with a 8.5 or an 8.6. And according to the site above they use the same part numbers for the ring and pinion gears. :unsure:
