tire chains and snow removal

Posted by Pete in PA on January 14, 2002 at 12:11:40 from (134.192.191.243):

Hi all,

I just got a snow/grader blade for my farmall 140, and have a question. I plan on putting chains on the rear tires, but do I need them on the fronts? Do chains on the fronts help with steering and traction? The 140, being "rear wheel drive" I imagine wouldn't really *need* chains on the fronts...any thoughts? What do all you folks do?

Pete

p.s. - looking for a rockshaft extension arm for the 140 - see classified please
