No not really pretty straight forward the only that got us was the rear manifold hitting the rack

You need to have an Xe conversion so you can use the bigger Cv's then you can get some 5 stud front hubs from Lmf or Chris Astley motorsport a set of disc pads and calipers then you need a rear disc conversion kit and a set of Cav V6 rear hubs with calipers disc's and pads all in all it's not a cheap mod but worth it
