Yes. I threw this together with extra parts and stuff I had. Its really nothing fancy but it only took a few hours and it works great. I will post some pics and details later.

Ya its fun! The chains probably took longer to build than the plow. It's hard to believe it took about 13 feet of chain to make them!

You plow snow at 50mph??

Great looking truck motur! Yeh chains are time consuming and you need a lot of chain. I remember making some for a Maxx and went and bought 15foot of chain thinking to myself that it seemed like way too much. Two hours later I was back at the same shop for another 15 feet of chain
