comp nut is 1.5" primary sprocket nut is 1 7/8", clutch nut is either 1 1/4 or 1 3/8. I am having a senior moment and can't recall for sure.

You're right! My nuts are sized proportionally to the rest of the package, large.

not sure, hate to sound like a dumbass but the crank end of the primary has some noise , a parts guy at the harley shop told me to check the crank sprocket nut to make sure that its not backed off. So is there two nuts on the end of the crank? ....there goes another loaded question.

IS it a "Chirp" noise? if ****'s tight, check your drive belt alignment.

no to be honest its a scary noise like a knock but when you put the chassis ears on it it sounds like its coming from there not the lower end or in the heads.
