Is it really that hard to install BMR relocation brackets? I was on install university reading on there saying I have to cut and bend some stuff on the LCA slots(something to that affect) I just wondered if I can tackle this myself with a friend or take it to a shop?
Thanks,

Bolt-ons are simple easy. The only cut/bend needed,
is to get rid of a brake-line strap that's in the way.
I used a Dremel and cutoff wheels and took them off
at the welds. Other than that it's jackstands and
hand tools. You cannot screw these up, unlike the
weld-ins. Though, don't take that as a challenge

What jimmyblue said. I used a reciprocating saw to cut my brake line bracket thing. Also agree that it tought to screw it up...however if you get weld-ins...you have to go to someone else and if they screw up, you're toast! It took me 3 hours on the first one and 45 min on the second one. Vertical learning curve once you get past the idea of cutting on your baby.
