how hard are these to put on? can it be done with simple hand tools, or do i need to use an impact wrench? i don't have access to one of those, so if i don't need to use it, that would be great for me.

you should be able to do it without power tools. you might need a 1/2" ratchet for leverage to tighten up the clamp, but other than that, its easy going.

i've got all the way up to 3/4" ratchets, so hopefully i will be good to go. i'll give it a try anyway, if i can't do it, then i'll know.

15mm deep socket or open wrench and a 13mm socket/wrench should do the trick. I just did them last weekend.

Also it looks like steeda's axleback is similar to the borla/FRPP.

The reason why the Steeda axlebacks are so similar to the FRPP and Borla's is because both the Steeda and FRPP Stingers are manufactured by Borla

I just installed the FRPP/Borla axle-back and it took me about 1.5 hours doing the job by myself. If I had another set of hands, it could be done in WELL under an hour. I used a 15mm deep socket on a 1/2" drive, and a 13mm socket on a 3/8" drive, and a 13mm open end wrench.
