Yes your chain will have to be shortened. It was time for a new chain and cassette for me anyways so it all worked out. I completed the change over the weekend and everything seems to be working out great. Took it out for a ride yesterday and everything is working as it should, shifting good.

It is really going to help out with better gearing for me, glad I made the switch.

Thank you everyone for all of your help and input, it is greatly appreciated.
