Default Re: attaching sprocket.

Yes note you have to bend the coaster brake arm. It will have to be bent to offset the front of the arm. Kind of looks like a lightening bolt. I don't have a pictures but someone probably does..... If you have a vice it is pretty easy without one you might have to use a hammer and pipe method. lay it over a pipe and hold one end then hit the other to bend it.

Much easier with a vise. You are just ending the arm out so it will clean the bolts I expect.
