Learn more about the working process
[Work Process]
1) Get a long spinner handle because of the large tightening torque. 
2) Turn counterclockwise to loosen. 
3) Grease the shaft threads to prevent gnawing. 
4) Install and tighten the titanium nut. 
5) Use a torque wrench to tighten it to some extent. 
6) Tighten to the specified value, then it's done. 
Advice
You don't need any special skills because you just have to replace them. All you need are tools and strength.
Titanium is a hard material, so taking a bite out of it is no longer an option. To prevent this, dry fastening should be avoided at all costs. The grease used for wet fastening is included with Pro-Bolt products. I'm sure normal grease will work for everything except the engine part, but I can't guarantee that.
The tightening torque value specified by the manufacturer is probably safe, but the value may be different for wet fastening. Installation is at your own risk! Once you use titanium, you'll be hooked!
