I'd like to explain how to do it but I don't have the time right now. Get yourself a repair manual, it'll show you how with pictures;) :)

if its eal hard to turn, take it back off and clean the threads on the axle and nuts with some brake cleaner, then put loctite on the nuts and they'll spin right on. spin the inner one snug then crank down on the outer one so it holds the inner nut in place

loctite? screw that...tighten it up..wrap electricval tape around it...it wont come loose, and you just untape it next time you want to take it off..instead of going through the trouble of breaking the loctite bond...
