You will most likely not be able to use anything from the 10. Tube OD is different. You will need lots of fabbing done for the springs, shocks, LCAs and PHR. Then the center with diff and gears. Unless you have a welder/fabricator in the family you would be better off with a Moser housing. Not to mention axles, bearing and such. BTW one axle needs to be shorter than the other and one tube shorter than the other due to the pinion coming out off center.
