should not be an issue as long as your current one is a locker rear end, otherwise pumpkins are not just plug and play.
the housing is different and either needs to be modified to accept a locker pumpkin or find a locker differential housing.. ( cutting , grinding, drilling and threading for new studs and you need to be right on the money on all of that)
no driveshaft modifications I know of.
Also , if this is new to the car...not an elocker car before, I advise doing the gray wire mod.....Id even do the mod if it was originally an elocker car......but that's just me.
