Title: Skidder chains
Post by: blake.meighen on November 10, 2018, 08:12:52 PM
I just sold a skidder with 28 L tires,bought a machine with 24-1-26 rubber.My question is I have 4 new 28 L double diamond ice picks,can I cut them down to fit my 24-1-26 rubber?

How worn are your tires ? I would throw a chain on and see where you would have to cut them to make them fit, depending on the manufacturer / style its alot of work. Why not call up a dealer and try and swap them ? 28L chains cost more than 23.1 chain.
