Lowes has 20' of chain with grab hooks each end for $35 made by Campbell.
I have used these for the last four years to tiedown my 110tlb. This is 5/16" with a 4700 lb work load and grade 7 (70 towing) .

That site at TARPSTOPｮ GRADE 70 FLATBED CARGO TRANSPORT CHAIN that dj1701 mentioned so far has the best prices I've come across. This one is a bit more on everything Trailer Parts Superstore - Ropes & Chains - Tractor Trailer but I still need to go check taxes and shipping on both sites.
I just went to my local Lowes and they had no binders and no finished chain in G70. Tractor supply had 4 of the 3/8 ratchet binders ($54.99 each) , but only 2 chains: G70 3/8x16 $62.99, G70 3/8x20 $69.99.

I bought my stuff at Chain, Chain Supplies, Binder Chains, Lifting Slings and Hooks . I talked to them on the phone and asked many questions, and at their site which shows the limits of each grade of chain. I added a bucket hook, and chains and sling hoops to do the lifting. I think my loader would fail before the chain.

Worked at place one time that was scrapping double decker car hauling trailers. The tie down chains were about 5' long with a grab hook already on. Wish I had got more than the four that I did......Great for final hook-ups when hauling logs, etc

Needed to go to Lowe's today and have been reading up on bucket hooks and chains. Have about decided to go with three of the 5/16" hooks and pick up a couple of the Grade70 5/16" chains to go with it. Figure I could use them to tie down the tractor and for use with the FEL. I didn't see any bucket hooks, didn't check on the binders, but am attaching what I found on the chain. Took it out of the velcro closed plastic bag to make sure, but the chain is 20' long and comes with a grab hook on each end. Pulled up the TarpStop site and can not get them shipped from there to me for less than the Lowe's price.
