Can someone post a pic of the stay chains or sway chains for my little girl? I can fab them up, Ijust dont know how long the chains are, or the "adjusters" are, I appreciate the help.

The best thing to do is mount an implement to your 3PH and center that. Put it on the ground and make your chains fit that with a SMALL amount of slack. After that, raise the implement to full height while watching for interference/tightness. Don't make them so tight that they restrict movement, or you could break expensive parts.

Unless you only have one implement for your three point you may wish to incorporate a turnbuckle into each side to allow for different implement widths.

And then do a make vs buy cost calculation. I didn’t have a low cost source of turnbuckles and mount rings. For me at 3/8 chain, buy was cheaper.

i have available various length sway chains w/turnbuckle. Fairly reasonable.
