    hey zoomerman, did you custom build your front ski? If so post a pic and tell me how you made it.

    Yea, i am building some cahins for the back, but I dont know what to use for the front tire, will cahins work or should I try to build a ski, there is a bad part though, i dont know how to weld, i still have 1 more year before I learn. I asked my dad if I should use chains for the front and he said no, they'll just make it worse. H e knows nothing in my opinion though because I asked 2 farmers that chain there tractors and they said sure give it a try. who is right?
