Default 4l60 -> 4l80 question

So I know my 4l60 is going to die once i finish my 6.0 swap so im tossing around the idea of just doing the 4l80 swap as well and just selling my 5.3w4l60 as a package while they both still work fine. So firstly on a scale of 1-10 how hard is the 4x4 4l80 swap for the someone who doesnt have a lot of experience with transmissions? And does anyone make a kit that would make the swap easier? I dont want to forget any important parts.

I'm not to swift on truck stuff and I did the swap. The write ups on here are pretty easy to follow. The hardest part, well for my nerves was the input shaft in the trans case. I worried about it but it was rally simple to do after I opened it up.

hey thanks for the reply. It make me feel a little more confident about doing the swap. Transmissions seem like witchcraft as it is!
