Where is the X-axis upgrade part in the i3 MK3S to MK3S+ upgrade guide?

Hi, I have completed Part 5  Y-axis upgrade. Where can I find the guide for the optional X-axis upgrade? It seems to be missing.

In the first chapter of the upgrade manual you linked to they say it is coming soon.

I just used the MK3s+ kit manual for the x axis parts.

Is that part really necessary? I'm going to upgrade my mk3s (received the upgrade kit today) but that optional part seems to me an unnecessary complication: you have to remove the bearings for the vertical rods from the two plastic parts you have to change, but to do so you have to disassemble all the z axis, and the risk of damaging those bearings is quite high. The optional part is a longer and trickier work than upgrade both the extruder and the y axis together, and all of this just to have two sturdier plastic parts and an easier to build and tension belt (my plastic parts are perfect and my belt is already trimmed and tensioned). It's much ado about nothing, as far as I can understand. Am I wrong? If so, why?
