Chain stuff

Where can I find a Grab ring for 5/16 chain.:confused2:
A grab ring mounts on the clevis of my draw bar Looks like two circles joined.
One big one that mounts to the clevis and one smaller one that allows me to slide up on the chain and grab the link where I want.

Someone posted a pic of what I think you are talking about on here a week or so ago. It was shackled to the drawbar. If I can find that thread I will let you know.

I found it. http://www.tractorbynet.com/forums/owning-operating/229396-proper-way-connect-chain.html The one I was talking about is #4. That may not be what you are looking for though.

Rasimo, I know what your saying but for the life of me I can't find it.:confused2:
Thats it by god... Now where do I find such things...?

 

[rasimmo]

I have no idea, I never saw one until that pic. I guess you could send baby grand a PM and ask, or maybe he will be along soon and see this. If you find one post info here please, I would not mind having one.

Do yall know if they make these for 5/16 chain? I looked around a little on both sites and could not find one.

Use the link on my post above. They have a pear link with 2 5/16 grab hooks.
I ordered that plus the grab link.

Thanks, I placed my order with them...

So was the pear or grab your original quest???

Why don't you just make one

here is the measurements for one with 5.16 chain and 2 inch attachment hole.

 

[Doppelgangar]

Forgot to say that one should use 3/8 plate.

Start with a bit of 5 by 2 3/4 flat.

Make the 2 inch hole.

Drill the 5/16 hole 2 inches from the 2 inch hole and cut with a metal saw.

I don't think they make a 5/16. In their Application notes they do not list a 5/16 chain, but do list a 9/32 chain.
