Default monotube drop-in install?

Hey so.. I have a semi-build thread going and can't seem to find a decent video on youtube, or thread on here for the install of the progressive monotube drop ins for an FX softail. Does anyone know of a good write up or video? I'm about 90% sure I can do this without ****ing anything up, just want to be sure I won't miss anything. Progressive instructions leave much to be desired..

Thanks in advance!

I put Monotubes in over the past winter. If you can change your own fork seals then Monotubes are no problem.
