yeah the front is easy but the rear I couldn't slide it out the axle.
you can change it but removing the bolts?/
sorry if i missed it but how many bolts do you have to remove?
4 bolts tires + 4 bolts sprockets+ loosen carrier to give slak to chain right.?

i think you got it there. but start with just loosing the carrier bearing nuts and loosening the chain.

The REAR stock sprocket wont come out the new one "sproket specialist" will go in though I think the stock needs bigger inside loops. the new one has them a bit bigger. I dont know but its not working. prbably will cut the rear sprocket, unless there is a easier way. wont take the axle off for sure.
Hope I like the set +1 in the rear for dunnning. if not will be forced to buy a new 36tooth

You could not get the rear sprocket off without cutting it ? I have switched from a 36 to a 38 and to a 37 and have not had to cut one yet it was a little bit of a pain but it came off just loosen chain pull wheel remove sprocket bolts give it a quarter turn push forward go over the sprocket flange 10 and 7 pull back and off at at 2 and 5.
