These won't be any different than installing AEV, Rubicon Express, or any other control arm brackets. You should be able to find a ton of YouTube videos that walk you through the process. Just focus on JK control arm bracket installs rather than worrying about brand. It's pretty straightforward. Other than some brackets being a 1-piece design vs a 2-piece design like those Maxtracs, and some offering only 1 mounting position vs. the 3 positions you get on the Maxtracs, all the brackets are about the same. Some quality differences in fitment and finish maybe, but essentially the same. I'd pay the extra money for a 1-pc design, but it's not really that big of a deal.....just makes install a touch less cumbersome.
If you need to rotate the axle a bit to get the bolt holes to line up, just use floor jack under the pinion to raise it, or under the pumpkin to lower the pinion. Those motions will help bring the arms inline with the holes so you can slide the bolts through.
