No I dont have chains, but I NEED some desperatly! I was constantly spinning. Im gonna rig up a little more weight for the back end too.

So if anyone knows where to get chains that would fit a 8.00x16 tire, lemme know!

Too late, I did.
I guess I could ask Gregg if he`d sell them though somehow I really doubt it.
If not try Princess Auto, Canadian Tire or Peavey Mart

Ill check out those places thanks Morris. I dont ever recall seeing tire chains and princess auto, or peavy mart though, although i never really have looked for them.

My grandpa used to have a set of those too, but be damned if anyone knows where they are.

Come try my lawn tractor Jack, you might need to buy a 4x4 truck just to tow it around haha.

The tires on it are hard rubber, specially when its this cold, the engine is 2 horse bigger then the original, and when ya put it in gear, shes got all kinds of power, so the ol gal just loves to spin!

Yeah it was a little warmer then here, but not my much! Here was minus 27, with the wind minus 39.

I didnt find it too too bad, except when I was up on the roof unthawing the "stink pipes", the wind got me real good up there, and I was glad to get down!

It`s cold enough to freeze even stink pipes, I`m sure if you would have taken a leak it would have froze before it hit the ground............
You`ll have to ask for tire chains, since they`re not real fast moving items they`re in some far corner or the warehouse.
