Shift kit and Using Royal Purple

I was wondering how hard it is to put a shift kit in a 98. And I was thinking about maybe running royal purple in the whole drivetrain- tranny, transfer case, front and rear diffs. I have heard good things about them so let me know.

I installed FactoryTech's separator plate. Love the improvement. Not neck-snapping, just better, more positive shifts. Of course I could have left the springs out of the 1-2 accumulator for a harder shift. Easy install.

As for RP, never have used it, but personally wouldn't hesitate to do so if it weren't for the high $$..
