[QUOTE="Dawsy77, post: 546389, member: 16576"] Have had a play trying to make it as easy and as cheep as possible to make as well as easy to install. I used strapping and ratchet tiedowns but went with double braid rope and just the old multiplier effect of running the rope 4-6 times between the cleats. It gets tight enough to distort the rubber almost all the way to the centre of the tyres. Will have a field test on the weekend in some shitty soft WA sand to see if I get much rolling of the chain. May need to weld every second link to reduce the rolling force.
