Help How do I install Busybox on a Samsung Galaxy Note 4?

So, this is something that I wanted to do for sometime now after having rooted my device, mainly because some rooted apps require Busybox command to function properly, so I was looking for any good advice.

I've gotten this far:

  • Rooted device properly
  • Gotten files required to install Busybox manually (Installers don't work, unfortunately)
  • Used the recovery boot feature to get one step closer to installing Busybox, but from there...
Well, I realized I was clueless, due to not having use the recovery boot system ever before, and I don't know how to ACTUALLY flash the files to the system to install Busybox.
 
All I have ever had to do was to download the app from the Play Store, open the app and Grant it root privilege then let Auto install do it's thing.
This was 5.1 and below. I think on one of my Motorola's running 7.0, I had to let it reinstall after each reboot.
 
Use TWRP:
Usually SuperSu.zip includes a busybox within the flashable, Osmosis has a busybox flashable, Magisk also has a Busybox module..
