    Having a problem installing chain onto new rear derailleur. Would really appreciate some help! Trying to save money by doing this myself. How do I get chain back onto new derailleur?

    Photos would help. You'll have to break the chain, or use a master link if you have one. Then it just gets threaded through.

    Assuming your old chain was the right length, you can also use it to determine the length of the new chain.
