I have fitted the chain and sprockets using the DID tool, this guy has done a superb how to:
DID chain tool review and tutorial - YouTube
I couldn't make head nor tail of the written instructions so this video was a real life saver.
I was amazed at how much you need to torque it up to press the new plate on and push the pins through. You need the same amount of force to get them to mushroom. I would like to know what the actual levels of torque are to push the pins through and to mushroom the rivets. I might send DID an e-mail.
What is the best way to do the first lube? Do I just spray on my usual chain lube or do I need to soak it in a lighter weight oil first?
As for the hanger that is no longer a problem, the clearance is as it should be and no rubbing. I can only guess that my extremely worn and knacked chain was causing the problem as the run out was way over spec.

I feel such a nugget for only testing one side of the disk. Had I flipped 180 I could have saved you all tons of time. Still I'm a better mechanic because of it. Just looking for some front disks on ebay. The run out on the disks are 4.7 and 4.9 mm respectively. I will also do steel lines whils I'm there. But will save it till spring.
Cheers Randy and Scott, to lads that were there from the beginning.

I'm getting run out and thickness confused. I measured the thickness of the disk at the outter edge.
