Unless you really need some grunt for heavy towing or offroad I think that 4.10's would be adequate for 37's. Lots of guys running them here.
I'm doing ok with 3.55's and 33's, but I want to run 35's in the future and thinking about 4.10's or 3.73's if I can get a good deal on them.

With the 2 spider setup and 3.55's of the 10.25 stearling, you'll eat up spiders.
Go with the 4.10's or 4.33's with the 37's to keep things easier on your spider gears.
That or switch to the 10.5 gen 3 setup with the 3 spider gears.

Far as I know, you can.
You can just pull the whole carrier and pop it into a gen 2 or 1.
The pinions are different though on the gen 3's.
You can upgrade a gen 1 to a gen 2 with a gen 2 pinion.
Gen 2's have better bearings on the pinions, but the better carrier and disk brakes on the outside are on gen 3's.

The SD carrier assembly slips right in. I put a 10.5 LS unit in my truck, but used 4.10's for a 10.25.
