Looking into 5.29's possibly ECGS. I'm trying to figure out what the 3rd member DIY install procedure looks like, with the core exchange. Haven't found any great tutorials. Anyone have a link or done it yourself? I still need to get quotes if I have ECGS do the install vs DIY.

I'm considering DIY since the ECGS shop is just out of reach for a day trip. Need to figure out if any special tools are involved or any part of the install I don't feel comfortable with. I've done suspension/leaf springs etc. and all maintenance so I can turn a wrench but haven't touched drivetrain before.
