There are tons of write ups for gear install. I was looking for one recently and had no trouble finding one. Just google or even check out americanmuscle.com. Good luck if you do it on your own.

Bite the bullet and get it done right. So you have someone to blame if something goes wrong.

But if you do plan on doing it yourself, Good luck and make a write up of your own.

i can do the work myself its just the shimming part im nervous about. I think i might do it over winter break cause its my daily driver and i go commute to school in staten island so that would be the most sensible time to do it jic i run into problems. Ive had them for well over year though and just never had a chance to get them in. I cant wait any longer haha. I just keep reading about them and i want them in bad.
