Nothing crazy. Some hex and torex bits, usual sockets and wrenches to pull the muffler, and a torque wrench. Like I said, it was really a simple job.

Not to hijack this but since we're talking about fwd controls, does anyone know the part number for the clevis that the peg rides in on forwards( in black/raw)? I need something like that to solve my passenger peg situation.

Also, I did the HD kit. It wasn't the exact kit number for my bike according to the dealer, but was the last chrome set they had. We looked at the parts list, and the only difference was the pin. Everything looked good to me, so I tried it. Everything installed just fine. 33395-06A was listed, 33395-06 worked just fine.

I just installed the forward controls on my bike today ( with a little help from my friend and neighbor) and it was straight forward ... u have to take ur front muffler off but other than that it was pretty easy

The freaks at my local stealer said the same thing to me about dyna. I asked him about sawing the olds shaft off inside the inner primary and he looked at me like I was on fire. Easy job, maybe one hour total.

I've got a 2011 sportster. I got the controls a little over a month ago, and installed myself. I don't know what the hell they're talking about. I removed the front muffler, pulled the mid controls, installed the forwards, and replaced the exhaust. As long as you've got the tools, it's a simple job.
