Rears are a direct swap to 10 bolt rears. You can put them on 9 bolts with the right backing plates.

The fronts aren't a direct switch but I'm sure someone is working on a kit to do this.

Would the backing plates from a 10 bolt directly swap to a 9 bolt? I have a 9 but have never looked closely at a 10.

No, but AndyZ28 has the 9 bolt plates if you need them.
