You did GREAT! I don't see how to improve it any. Chains will always say "I mean business" |

| Snow Chains
I made some snow chains last season for my Axial EXO. I've since adapted and improved them for my CR-01 Bronco. I used my proline beadloc rings that I had laying around. All links are fastened down with the exception of one for removing the chains as needed. Let's just say I can't wait to try them out on snow since carpet doesn't count |

| Snow Chains-
To stir the thead: An event project for the season... ^^The Inner and Outer chain^^ I used 44 links for the inner and outer ring and.. I used about 12-14 links to connect the rings.. To note: each linking chain is space by 6 links and one or two were spaced by 7 links(to get specific...) It took me a good hour to get the concept figure out, link count etc. I used a tiny pair of pliers(Crescent RT24) to hold one half of the chain and my MIPS 2.0 to pry the other half open. Then closed with the Crescents. A final note that needs to be stated: The tires are 1.9 Rock Tyres Super Swampers(from Amazon) Their dimensions are about: 4.5" tall 1.6" wide Different size tires or different size chain will effect the amount used in relation to the numbers I have shared Sent from my VS987 using Tapatalk Last edited by SurfinStud; 01-07-2018 at 07:23 PM. |
