It's a simple install, instructions i've heard a very good. your actually only replacing 3 parts, up pipe, replacing the cooler with a coolant loop off, and the egr valve with a block off plate. take your time and don't drink too much beer during the process and you should be fine. You don't need to be a diesel tech to do this. Hope it works out good for ya!

Also my first kit I ever installed was a liberator delete and it took me and a buddy ALL day! We had to replace the gaskets for the intake manifold, which they claim are reusable, but on a 100k mile truck, they were not, so cleaning those surfaces took a long time. Just prepare for an entire day. We started at 9am and I left his house at midnight. We also had issues resealing the turbo to the up-pipes in the back. That can be a PITA. A second set of hands will help tremendously. I could do another one a LOT faster now, but the first time was rough.
