AndyMark Wheels- adding sprockets, bolts, and such

So, after playing around with SolidWorks for awhile, I decided to throw some wheels on the kitbot.

Unfortunately, I can't figure out to add fasteners to the sprocket/wheel. I can use the smart fastener tool to add a fastener, but I can't seem to make it long enough to add nuts (when I add a nut, it appears before the wheel and after the sprocket anyways). I also can't remember off the top of my head the length, size, or even type of bolt used either.

Finally, how would I CAD the sprocket so that it isn't right on top of the wheel? I want to define the assembly so that I can't slide the sprocket and bolts in and out of the wheel.

Still a bit new at this, so all help is appreciated. If someone has a step-by-step guide to assembling the wheels/sprockets, that would be fabulous.
