It IS pretty much a straightforward switch. The major "alteration"
consists of shortening the wheel studs by a small amount (3/8" sticks in
my mind, but hopefully someone has the actual number handy and will reply
with same). Beyond that, make sure to bolt the correct adaptors to the
correct side, and use the correct nuts to secure the adaptors, and that's
pretty much it!
