Pretty straight forward bud.

 

Will I need a breaker bar. I know on my tlr it was a pain

 

It would certainly be helpful. Sometime I use long wrenches or pipes laying around to add more leverage to the wrench, doesn't have to be anything special. What you do need is a torque wrench to make sure everything is in spec when you slap it back on :thumbup

 

I have a torque wrench what is the spec?

 

Don't mark my words, find out for yourself on your year model. I'm not sure if they differ between the different year models.

If it isn't in your owners manual then get your hands on a service manual. You'll need it especially if you plan on working in your own bike.

 

It was 83 ft-lbf through K8 but I think it's 105 ft-lbf on yours.

 

I have always found it much easier to use an impact wrench. Also, a little medium strength locktite for good measure.

 

i wish I had a impact.

 

I'm looking into getting an impact wrench and driver here soon.

 

Thank God for auto zone lol

 

Oh no, don't tell me you bought some over priced tools there!

 

Loaner tools

 

Gotcha :thumbup

It was my wife's idea to go look around Lowes and figured I'd go take a look. Ended up snagging up a $50 Kobalt!

 

I have the older version of this corded Milwaukee impact and this thing is the balls! It works better than my pneumatic stuff.

You could always use a torque multiplier.
