A socket worked fine on all of the nuts.
I didn't use the the actual torque values listed for our bikes, just kinda went by feel.
I tightened the adjuster nut whilst turning the yoke back and forth until it was rather tight (to seat the new races), then backed off and re-tightened til i just felt some resistance and then put the locknut on. I'm not saying you should do it that way, just that it worked for me.
Oh yeah, it was a PITA to get everything out of the way (bars and cables and such), and it took me a few tries to get all the wires and cables routed correctly. I think i must've pulled the top yoke off two or three times! That's how it goes sometimes!
