  • I really like the tire chains. I haven't noticed any negative effect of the chains on the ATV. I use the diamond pattern chain versus the "H" pattern. I only ride on dirt or gravel (at low speed) so leave the chains on year round. I keep some extra barrel links to connect the chains which sometimes disconnect. I have tried two different brands of chain. One by 'white mountain chain" and the other by another company. Links are below. Both worked well, as would others.

  • Hey how do you like the tire chains? I have an arctic cat 400 and want to put them on for ice/snow but am concerned that tire chains may tear up the diffs.

  • Arctic Cat made DIESEL quads ?? I gotta go look at that ! O.o

  • I skid logs five times that size out of a massive gorge using nothing but roller skates. With bald tires. And the laces aren't that great either.

  • im not far away nice set up

  • my suzuki ozark 250 is 2wd and i skid beech and maple out by my swamp where the groung is real soft and i use tire chains but this video is not very impressive at all seeing its a 700 DIESEL

  • my old 110 junk box with bald tires could do that no problem!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

  • haha whats funny is my 1981 moto 4 and its only 2 wheel drive with bald tires can pull out a 1500 pound moose with no problem at all and you think this is impressive

  • You seem very excited about what is happening. Its neither that impressive or that unusal. That atv could do alot more than that.
