Im going to try this set of chains on the tractor over the weekend. From laying them over the tire I think the only issue might be that theyre narrower than Id like. Since these are free, maybe Ill think about lengthening or widening them to work.
Also I like the idea of adding chain links between the bars. My main purpose right now is to get more tractor in the snow, but this tractor is used the rest of the time for skidding logs out of the woods. So maybe chains would help me out some there as well.
A couple questions. First, why do I see people with a bunch of bungees holding the tire chains on? Youll see 4 or 5 bungees run across the rim, holding the chains tight. Is this the way its supposed to be done, or is this actually a fitment issue and the bungees are a bandaid?
When I install the chains I assume I lay them out flat and run them over with the tractor. When the rear tires are centered on the chains I can attach them. Is there any benefit to using a ratchet strap to get them pretty tight? Or do I not want them that tight?

Free settlers started to arrive, they followed the explorers across the mountains and where land was suitable set up farms. T
