Had to flip the sprocket over on my Alfine 8 for the chain run to line up on the 853 Inbred build. This is just a short pictorial of the sequence that might be useful to people.
First off, the components laid out in the order they go on the hub, back to front.

First off, bare hub

Then shield washer

Then sprocket, which sits into 3 grooves

Then the cheeky spring clip.

I got this on using two screwdrivers, and by easing it over one tang first, then working it around until the other end tang slotted home. Took a minute.

Then the weatherproofing seal

Then the shifting washer

Then the red dotted pawl

Then the locking washer, which has two pressings which locate into the hub on the back side

and fitted

Then the shifting arm,

which can be a bit tricky as it has to line up on the shifting washer, and also sit flush in order to fit the locking tab, which you do by lining up the yellow dots and then twisting 90' clockwise

and done

This post was brought to you by rhubarb wine. I hope it might be of some use to someone.
Also, photobucket is playing up so say if the images don't show.
