very easy , most of the kits come with an inner ring and outer ring. inner ring sits inside lip of rim. just grind off paint or powder coat and center inner ring on the outer rim ( inside of lip ) and weld it all the way around. I put a bead of RTV around my weld just for a little extra defense against leaks.

They are simple to do but hard to get balanced for highway driving.
