My 4x4 tractor got it's first real test in snow yesterday and did not perform as anticipated - until I put the chains on. Chains are a "force of nature".
I tie my chain ends through the wheel, then go forward..and the chain rolls onto the tire. Just drive a bit, then adjust to make the chain is centred, roll a bit more, centre, etc. Roll until the ends are at about 9 o’clock, easy reaching distance - and you’re not fighting 100 pounds of chain due to gravity. Easy peasy.
a 4wd tractor will STILL need chains
ok ill be that guy. 4wd. BUT you still need chains. Have you tried a cam strap to pull the ends together to get started?
Great idea with the tensioner.
I liked the tension-er. Did you tie the wire and remove the wire tightening device? Or did you take up another link or two after running the tractor a little? My guess sis the latter - but you didn't make it clear. Thanks - I'm learning many tricks for chains.
I enjoy your videos. It must be tough getting good help. Your son is great, "pilates" just what a farmer/rancher needs. He did lend you a helping hand though.
That is one big blower you have on there . No matter if you get no snow but you certainly are ready when it does come .Like that wire tightener you have there . Gotta get a few of those .
Love the vids BTW......In the begining when you are having trouble holding the chain at the top to connect the two halves, If you only drove 1 foot [for example] onto the chain, the other half will go almost all the way over the top and will hold itself there while you connect the halves. Thus avoiding the "helping hand".
Saw NB88 do exactly what you said . Had no problem putting on his new chains . One end stays on the tire and you just have to pull up the other end .One man show .
Looks like one of those modern Peloton Tractors ; )
Did you also use this device on the inside of the tire?
2wd tractor with chains will push/pull a lot more than a 4wd without chains. If it's that big of a deal, get a 2nd set of wheels and leave the chains on ;)
Try the rope on the chain & the tractor will pull it up & over & No hernias, Look on TY IT is on a few sites, I use that method on my Skid.
Do you add this wire on both sides of the tire? I would think it's even more awkward on the inside edge!
(I watch "pure living for life" youtube channel also, and even with a four wheel drive tractor they use chains)
It's only needed on the outside in order to eliminate slack.
Would a tractor with chains damage a concrete garage floor?
only if you drive on it! If your just parking it inside you should be fine, you won't have much for traction on concrete so do not spin the tires. Also soo many variations of chains so this is general rule. The spiked chains I do not think I would even park on concrete
You can lay down strips of rubber mat and only drive in and out on those strips. Roll them up and put aside other times.
good info.....lol nice gloves your camera man has

Looks like a fall project
Thats not true. You still need chains on a 4 wd tractor.
For heavens sake wheres the cab and heater? Couldn't help myself. I also find chains are easier to put on if you throw the tension-er side of the chain up on the tire then just drive forward till it comes out the back bottom of the tire. The chain will pull itself up on the tire that way. Then with gravity helping you pull the chains downward at the 5 o'clock position you get the chains tighter the first time, instead of fighting gravity and trying to hook the chains at the 12 o'clock positon.
Don’t pull onto them so far so your not trying to hold up both sides at the same time and hook
I have a four wheel drive tractor. And I still need chains lol
My 4x4 does great until you have an incline....chains are the only things to get 'em up
👍
Please don't show me how not to put chains on. Why do you install the James the hardest Why do you install the chains the hardest way possible???
You Canadians sound like cartoon characters.
