Is the new rear end another 10 bolt?
No. You'd be wasting your money IMO.

I'm going to stick with my original suggestion and say, junkyard 14 sf. Just my 2 cents, it's your truck!

If you decide to go with a 14 bolt, there are two different carriers. One supports the 4.10 and numerically lower gears and the other supports 4.56 and higher. So before you just buy one, make you have a gear ratio set in your mind. If you decide on 4.10 you could later change to 3.73 gears but not up to 4.56 without changing the whole axle.

Food for thought.

Just found that there aftermarket "G2" brand gear sets, that are made in varying ratios, made for either axle carrier. So what I stated above, only applies to all stock components.

That only applies to the 10.5" 14 bolt. The 9.5" 14 bolt axle has no carrier breaks.

This.
That being said if you can find a factory SF 14 with 4.56s, you'd be doing well for yourself.
