When converting to 530 you use sprockets with more teeth than 630 to maintain the physical sprocket diameter. You can still have approx the same ratio.

I just realized that I do not have the right size of socket for the nut on the drive sprocket. It is difficult to get a caliper in there to measure, does anyone know the correct socket size? Looks to be 32mm or 34mm??Comment

Sorry, I don't know. But be sure to check your SAE size sockets too. Sometimes you get lucky.Ed
To measure is to know.

Yep, 32mm is correct! I spent a bit more time trying to measure mine and got a proper reading. Quick trip to the local Menards store and I had a 32mm deep impact socket. Spun the nut off with my Milwaukee cordless impact tool after about 10 seconds of "hammering" with the tool.
Thanks guys!Comment
