jandamna Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Yeah you do need a mech hanger, and you just need allan keys, but watch out cause the bigger bolt tends to round (I just rounded my second bolt the other day, so i got fed up and bought half link chain ) Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

MadManMike Posted January 8, 2008 Report Share Posted January 8, 2008 Clamp the hub if you have a workbench, then screw it up hand tight and tap it round with a big flathead screwdriver. I did this when I didn't have the correct tool - I can't remember what they are called either lol sorry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
