All I had to do is use the provided alen key to turn the pinion screw out.. pulled the pinion off the motor... loosen the motor for adjusting to new pinion size. Slide the new pinion on and tighen it's screw down with the alen key. line up the teeth for both spur and pinion and tighten down the motor.
Was so easy... no need for buttun head hex wrenches... just use el chepo alen key!
This would be all fine and good but there is a reason the first thing I throw away are the stock allens that come with every kit..they do more damage than good.
