Search Google for Ballistic Fab. I would never buy from them based on their reputation alone

Iron rock hnt with a stock front drive shaft
Go for it
My buddie and I put one on his zj took a little over a half hour to do and has been working great

He bought the drill jig also. It made it easy to make sure the shaft was drilled in the center and cut straight

How hard is it to do? I have some experience with drilling and such, but i am a little shaky on this. Id love to do it, but not if its hard.

I'd recommend the drill jig. I dont' know how you people can get it done so quickly. It took forever to drill through that POS.
