working on a tc bros hard tail setup the po had swapped to a tx500 wheel previously
Just wanted some input on the way I have this mocked up and measured the chain looks good to me but I'm blind as a bat with one leg shorter then the other

9mm spaced out on the sprocket
Drive side is 3 1/2 inches from inside axleplate to hub
Brake side is 3 3/8 from inside axle plate to hub

sprocket alignment is the only thing that matters on a hardtail if the sprockets are in line and parallel with each other (both horizontal and vertical) the wheel will be centered to the engine. That makes the odds pretty high it will also line up with the steering stem, front wheel. Laser or straight edge to get that sprocket alignment, start by removing the LH engine cover and chain. when you get it right mark you chain adjusters so you can keep it straight when you have the axle loose.
