It covers removing the fender panel, swapping bolts for studs, stacking valve bodies, and wiring couplers. Best for owners planning this exact upgrade themselves.
Posted to Messick's channel but filmed by an owner (ChuckE2009) doing his own hands-on install rather than a dealership sales pitch.
Remove the fender inner cover and lever coupler, swap the three factory cap bolts for studs, stack the new valve bodies with the factory one, torque the studs, then reconnect cables and quick connect couplers.
Don't mix up the two lever kits since one has a wider flat spot and interferes if swapped, and adjust the cables before mounting the valve bodies, not after, since it is hard to reach them once installed.
The person doing it had never done this before and said it was much easier than expected, essentially just removing three bolts, replacing them with studs, and adding valve bodies.
