South bend just showed up

So like maybe 5 minutes ago now. the ups man dropped by and made 2 runs to get my flywheel and clutch assembly to me. Its for the g56, and was just wondering if anyone of y'all who've done this install could answer a few questions.

Is it just a clutch install, or is it different with the dual mass flywheel?
I wouldnt imagine it be any different than just pulling the tranny daown and replacing the old with the new.

I have done 2. You have to take off the turning tool cover off to remove the bolts from the flywheel like you would and auto torquconverter. You will need the cummins turning tool or use a prybar to turn the motor over to get to each bolt and with the last one you will have to hold the flywheel up to keep it from falling off.then you will replace it with the new one pice flywheel. it will make a little more noise in the cab but not bad you will also need the upgreaded hydraulic kit pn# HYD-X-.750 form south bend. The stock will be very hard to push and may not last long or even relese the clutch. its a one pice kit ready to be put on and is $200. You will have to mount the resovor to the fire wall
