Is there anybody near bolton has a castle type swing arm lock nut removal tool.
If not I'm taking a grinder to a 30mm socket

Is the outer castellated part separate from the inner that takes a hex key?

No worries it's how I did mine and yea u don't need to take the castle nut off but if it moves then u won't be torquing it properly u will just do the castle nut to the frame.
