i am expecting my lk3054xs any day and have been looking for a good chain. everywhere i go has chains and end sold separate and i've been 3 places and they all have chain made from different stuff.

first what kind of test weight should i get.(pulling trees out)
second what should it be made of.
third any recommendations on ends.
forth do they still make ready made chains and do i want one.
finally where can i buy one without paying to much.

thanks in advance for your help
