Yes there the same.
No, GM 8.8-inch bolt 3.73 gears cannot fit in a 10-bolt rear end. The 8.8 and 10-bolt rear ends have different gear designs, sizes, and configurations, making them incompatible. If you're looking to change gears in a 10-bolt rear end, you'll need to use gears specifically designed for that axle.
Yes u do to remove the lifters
No.
i have a 1983 Chevy k10. it uses GM corporate 10 bolt axles with 2.73 gears
Manual transmission is a stick shift. You have to manually change the gears using the shifter and the clutch.

"C" clips hold the axles in place. In order to remove the "C" clips the wheels and brakes need to be removed, then the rear diff cover, then the small lock pin/bolt that holds the spider pin in place, then the spider pin, then push the axles in until the "C" clip has clearance to be removed. Once the "C" clips are removed the axles will slide out.
