fixitrod Posted December 18, 2003 Report Share Posted December 18, 2003 104 links should work. Take it down to 105 first and line it up. If it's to big, 104. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
boonman Posted December 18, 2003 Report Share Posted December 18, 2003 I thread the chain through, pull it taught, and then look at it to see how much needs to be removed. If done right, it should take you less than 5 minutes.... Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leadfoot350 Posted December 19, 2003 Report Share Posted December 19, 2003 I agree with boonman. Measure first with the adjusters all the way in because you know the chain will stretch the first weekend and then cut it to size. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
wheeleymaster99 Posted December 19, 2003 Report Share Posted December 19, 2003 yeah i got the same chain just put it on there with the adjusters in as far as they go so you can tighten it as it streaches. but get it on there and mark where you want to cut with a marker or something Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
