Fixing tire chains

(1/2) > >>

Well already fixed them.
The story bought these at a yard sale 5 bucks a set.
Well got these suckers on the truck yesterday,just to see if they fit in my driveway.
SOB was like like 5 in short and a crossover too short.
I bought two sets the other set is too small for any of my trucks.
So I added a bit to the one set,got like two crossover that are cleated. And the link I circled is the connected link that I welded together.
Think they will hold?
Or I am I screwed?

Tired of not having chains for this truck and was almost positive they would fit at the yard sale.
Can't afford new ones.
The set I stole from looks like it would fit an ATV tire now.

Dan-o:
I've modified several sets over the years.

Those should work fine.

KFhunter:
The new crossovers are too short, I could see them slipping off, and I don't like your tag end bungied like that

I think the weld will hold

KFhunter:
Got a lot of snow coming our way, you might be just in time  :tup:

I was thinking they are a hair short.
Maybe I'll just buy a few crossovers.
Should I just ziptie ends ,paracord them back. Or what.
Ya I'm gonna mess with them in the driveway and such with the big storm coming.
Test them around the house a bit.
I also got to pin back my mudflap I think too.
I'm just leaving them on the truck for the storm and I'll move the truck around in two wheel in deep snow.
