TIRES CHAINS ON ALL 4 WHEELS OF 4WD JD TRACTOR?

Posted by cdm on August 27, 2004 at 10:48:21 from (66.82.9.24):

I have JD 5410 4wd tractor with chains on the rear. I still have slippage on ice when going up or down steep, winding drive. Is their unnecessary risk of damage to drivetrain by putting chains on front wheels as well as rears? Manual makes no mention of chains, and JD dealer not offering opinion. Chains I have are the Canadian spike type.
Thanks too all.
