I believe he is talking about only the diff with jack-shafts attached from a non-ADD truck. Some might call it a straight front axle.

Yes it will fit no problem. It wont affect anything, just remember to cap/loop your vacuum lines.

No, its not the same as auto hubs.

Hence why its ADD and not ADH

Auto hubs unlock at the spindles, ADD unlocks at the front diff.

If you are talking about a solid axle (like in the rear of the truck), no. It will NOT fit witout some extensive modifications.

no modification needed. All you need is to replace 2 bolts on each side.
