Default Installing an aftermarket posi diff in a 2007 chevy tahoe

Hello Group. I'm a sixties old school guy. I just don't care for the modern "limited slip" diffs. Its still just one wheel traction. I want to install an aftermarket "posi" diff in my 2007 Chevy Tahoe LT (2 Wheel drive). With the exception of the gaskets, crush sleeve, etc., will this be a simple swap? Will the standard Chevy gears fit the aftermarket (Yukon) posi unit? Are 30 spline axles standard for this model?
THANKS!!

Welcome to the forum.

Sounds like what you want is the G80 option which is an Eaton locking diff. Although I've never opened up a diff., from what I've read, there's nothing about it that can be considered simple.
