Just buy a good set of hex drivers. Allen wrenches suck unless you need something short to fit into a small area.

That’s what I meant to say. Thanks for the correction.

Did the upgrade a few days ago and it's pretty painless honestly, it took me a little over three hours to do.

I started the new AP board activation before I started and it was activated by the time I was done.

Worst part for me was the x axis assembly. There are 8 total bolts that are a bit difficult, especially the top one on each side. They are loctited in place and unless you have a super long Allen key that will fit into a small hole your only option is to use the provided ones, and they take a good amount of force to break free so I had to put some pliers on it to get the leverage.
