yes
the housings will be the same
clue here --if the diff center comes into the housing from the front not a problem
if it comes in from the rear ( tin cover removed ) replace the complete housing as you will have to have expertise in resetting the bearing pre-loads for the diff center bearings
I am sure you already know this but will mention it anyway just for others that read your question. On all of my trucks you can not shift in or out of 4wd low unless transmission (not transfer case) is in neutral and vehicle pretty much stopped. The transfer case for 4wd low is geared so different that system will not change back out of low (or fully into low) unless trans control is telling computer that it is in neutral.
as long as the gear ratio matches up and the mounts measure identical..if the gears are different it wont work when 4 whell power is needed..there is normally a tag on the punkin cover that has numbers on it like 3.83 or such if these numbers are the same it should fit..even tho its 5 years difference..
Most of the time this problem is caused by the 4 wheel drive switch. Usually you can just replace the switch and that will fix the problem. I have replaced many of those switches and that has fixed the problem.
My 2000 Yukon XL with 5300 engine had same problem at 115,800 miles in Aug 2006(I bought the vehicle new January 2000)...My GMC dealer did diagnostic and replaced a faulty 4WD Transfer Case Shift Control. (reading from the service invoice) It was GM part number 15709327. Cost for the repair was $41.48 + labor $74.13, total was $115.71...it now has 165,000 on it and so far no problem and the 4WD works when I need it.
the teeth and bearings on the 2nd gear and 2nd gear shaft are worn, when putting it into 4x4 it puts a heavier load on the shaft that quiets the bearings and forces the gears tighter together.
