Default 2008 Yukon Denali 6.2 Headers

I've searched for a week or so on this topic and haven't found a good answer.

I have a 2008 yukon denali AWD and want to put longtubes in. What brand/size will fit? I'm leaning towards American Racing but I only see threads for pick ups, not Yukons. I'm sure the pick ups are the same as the yukons, just want to make sure before I buy.

How hard is the install in a garage? I put longtubes in my camaro SS a few years back and it was a nightmare.

I don't think any header install is a walk in the park. Has anyone installed headers on a newer yukon denali here? I'd like to know how the install was.

6753 are the 1 7/8 headers. With the 6.2, I would recommend the 1 7/8.

well it can't be any harder than my 00 camaro SS. that took me two days on a lift doing it by myself. I'll have to do the denali in my drivway. Clearance looks pretty good, lots of room to work from what I can see.
