It's pretty straight forward. Just use caution not to strip the heads on the rear sprocket bolts.

In a perfect world these should be replaced with the sprockets, not 100% nessary though.

Change the chain with the sprockets, they wear a pattern together and if you do not change them together it will wear the sprockets out pretty quick.

Other than that I'm pretty sure once unbolted the rear sprocket will slide off the axle with the tire removed. It fits over the Hubs

sounds like it shouldn't be too bad since i'm just replacing the front sprocket.

anybody know what the torque spec is for the front sprocket?
