If you buy the lakewood it's very simple to install. I think they're around $50 from jegs but it bolts right in place of the brace under the car.

A buddie of mine was saying you had to mess with the interior to hook it up, true? I cant see why they would make the bolts that big.

Not the lakewood, which is the only one I can tell you about, cause it's the only one I have used.

Jegs or summit brand for our car runs about 50$ and takes about 45 minutes to install(just bolts in place of g-load brace. Now im not sure but if you have a chassis mount torque arm you might have to buy a new torque arm with a built in drice shaft loop. later. and by the way dont try wrestling it in just take the driveshaft off for install.
