Just ordered a L 2501
My 300' gravel drive and parking area turns into an ice rink from time to time, and I believe I need chains on the rear. Will they fit?

How much clearance do you have on the inside of the tires and to the fenders on top

Not enough, it turns out. I heard back from the Massey dealer. They have a machinist that can fabricate rear wheel spacers. They're a little pricey at $400. Apparently, without the spacers, the skid steer type chains will rip the rear fenders off the tractor.
