Tires Chains variation

( CBB, I'm still wondering about being able to turn that one bolt around that sticks out so close to the rear tire. Is it possible to bolt it through the opposite way and have only the head on that side? )
Two times asked. Guess you don't have an answer. No problem.

Hi John,
I have not answered because I am not sure yet. You give such great advice in the forum and I am pleased you have asked but I will be darned if I can remember and right now the BH is off. I recall finding that other close spot and getting side-tracked plus concentrating on taking the BH off correctly...and so, I think it can but I have to check before I can say for sure. When I put the BH back on next week, I will try switching those bolts and see. Dang senior moments!

I think you should change them out before you put the BH back on, or you probably won't have room to get them out and back in.

If you can change the head to the other side, you may have enough clearance to use the chains you want.

how about a small set on the front end.... should be plenty of clearance there. Studded or V bars are what I use on my DK 65 on the front. Not sure how this would be on yours but I would think it should work.

Good thought. I am going to try the front V bar chains.

My tire size is 23 x 8.5 -12

So what size do I order from the Tractor Chain site? /forums/images/graemlins/confused.gif
