The distance of the engine/trans/transfer case to the front diff doesn't change no matter what the wheelbase.
2wds have the larger diameter filter hanging straight down while the 4x4s have the smaller one and the adapter that makes it 90 degree to clear the drive shaft. You can take the adapter off and use a short larger diameter filter, but not if you want to keep the external cooler.
Just put a piece of card board on the shaft so that the oil drains into your pan.
and 99 Tahoe stuff should really go in the 88-98 section.
