Secure bike well. Weight of wheel will surprise you. When it's released the bike's balance will change & if not secure it will end up not were you want. Factory sprocket has a rim not found on the JT version. Note studs use the rim to secure. I was able to figure out how to use new sprocket with original fittings. Once assembled putting wheel back on, you would benefit having a second set of hands. Due to lining up brake pads as you put the bolt back in, is an ackward moment.
Torque unknown. Note adjusting bolts should be set evenly (they alline rear wheel as well as set chain length).
Most important tool for the job is the spring washer tool. Sears sells, get the large one.
