Just ordered my 6.5 RC long arm
Was wondering if anyone has had experience installing one of these beaut's. If so could you give me some pointers to help make the install easier. Already have a 4.5 RC on there so im hoping I can just 1 for 1 swap components. Thanks

Should go ok on a rust free one.......The one I put mine on was originally from new Hampshire and was a PITA. after being up there in all that salt.
Broke off all the bolts/studs holding on the tranny crossmember even with a month of pre soaking with PB blast and with liberal preheating and ended up making nut strips and slipping them thru floor board into the unibody rails.
I do like the kit though.
