Dual Disc Clutch?

I've got my new DD clutch and input shaft from SouthBend sitting in my shop and I'm thinking of doing the install myself. (just like to see if I can)

My question is for a guy that's never done a clutch install or messed with a manual tranny is there any words of wisdom you guys can think of?

Any certain specialized tools that are needed?

I know I need to round up a tranny jack, and buy 4 quarts of the mopar tranny fluid but is there anything else I should have on hand before the install?

I also have a complete service manual as well so I'm sure there are pics of the input shaft and directions on how to install it.

Thanks for your time.
DB
