[QUOTE="Tazza, post: 90813, member: 82"] That is basically how I did mine too. I got a piece of angle iron and welded water pipe to it to bolt to the lugs, used a spanner inside the chain case and tighten from the outside. I didn't use a torque wrench, I just hauled on them though. As for the wear sleeves, I installed mine with the new bearing cone. Slip the wear sleeve on the axle, slide the bearing cone on to the axle and seat the bearing and sleeve in one hit. I used a piece of water pipe for this too, it slid over the axle nicely and worked as a hammer, simply slide up and down over the axle and hit the bearing. It worked really well for me. As for adding chains after the axles and sprockets are in, this will only work if you get chain and master links and not pre-made ones. [/QUOTE]
