    35mm but 36mm will work.. a nut that size it will be fine. just make sure the 36mm is 6 point.

    Yeah, I've used so many different sizes.Many don't fit perfect, but as mentioned, always go 6-point. Most axle nuts will come out reasonably easy.

    Not much of a challenge to be honest. AAL can be pretty straight forward and simplistic. Which kit did you get? Hopefully it came with decent instructions.

    Yeah some c clamps and a socket set is all you need other than jack and stands. It's easy peasy. Just drop the axle, clamp the pack, take the center pin out, unclamp slowly, insert leaf, assembly is reverse.
