Yearly mounting of the tire chains. Anybody have any good tips to make it go easier? Cussing up a storm seems to have little effect. lol
(quoted from post at 19:22:04 11/24/13) Thats pretty much what I do now, even still, one side took 3 minutes, the other side was an hour .
Ha Ha. this is funny. Reread what you wrote Rick.(quoted from post at 20:15:39 11/24/13) not tryin to be a smart mouth guy here but i put them on a mf -35 every year takes me less than15 minuets for both tires,i throw them over the top and farten them on the bottom i do each one loose,i hook them in the first chain hook on each side,after they are both on i drive it about 15/20 feet or so,then put the adjusters back on the bottom and im done.maybe a larger tractor is a little more difficult.

(quoted from post at 16:49:07 11/24/13) Yes, worn down tires would make the job easier. These are field chains by the way, not highway chains which are considerably easier to mount I have found.

Seriously, some guys around here just swap tires and rims.
One set with chains for winter, one without for summer.
It's not that expensive because tires with worn tread that
you were going to replace anyway work fine for chain use.
Those and a used set of rims and you're in business.
