4k GSK KIT INSTALLATION?
Which is easier, the instruction I got with the kit is this:
http://www.pacbrake.com/PDF/L5658.PDF
However after searching around the internet I found another brand with different instructions:
https://www.atsdiesel.com/PDF/3000_R...Springs_A1.pdf
Now what I'm wondering is which way is easier and most reliable. I imagine lots of users here have done this installation, already. So, I guess what I'm asking is which method is better?
First set of instructions has the installation being done through what I think is an inspection type plug. The Second installation instructions seems a lot more involved. Looks to me like it's done through the top and I think it may require breaking off a screw.
Personally it seems that the first set of instructions is less involved.
Although, I like number 21 of the second set of instruction in that the first set of instructions doesn't give any troubleshooting tips.

All of the governor springs that I've done, I've gone through the plug. The only problem I run into going through the plug is getting the plug to rethread but it always goes back together just takes some patience. The only time I've gone through the top was when I just wanted to tighten my springs.

Okay, thanks.
My Dad will probably do the installation this coming, Sunday or maybe the week after.
I could have said, "help me with this", but I know I'll just end up watching him do all the work, when it's all said and done. Heh, he'll probably end up buying a kit for himself, if the results are unexpectantly, good.

My Dad and I were talking about the installation last Sunday and he told me that a special tool (which he told me he doesn't have) was needed to turn the crank over, by hand. How did everyone else do that? Did you just use the starter to bump the crank over, is there another way or does everyone own that special tool he was talking about? ...or is he misinformed?
