Is the HP Dana 30 a direct replacement for a LP Dana 30?

I've posted in the "wanted" section about a HP Dana 30 axle.  A few questions, will a HP axle bolt right up to my 2000 Cherokee that currently has a LP axle?  IF I find one, I DON'T want any suprises with fitment issues.

I've played around with the UCA's on mine Friday, and found my wandering problem is 95% caster angle, and 5% trackbar bushing.  I had to put it back because of the pinion angle being off with my LP axle.  I removed the 3/8" shims I had behind the LCA's and things are much better, not as good as with changing holes in the UCA's, but MUCH better. 

I also replaced the bushing in the frame end of the trackbar, and that helped too.  I also noticed when I went to loosen the mounting bolt, the nut was loose.  The steering is much more solid now.
