Since the box they came in had the weight, 243 lbs, listed I'm not about to lift them by hand to hang on the wall. So I just use the loader to lift them up to the second floor of the barn/ garage and drag them to a corner for the summer. No oil and no straightening out. I suppose you could mount a couple of steel wheels from a car onto the wall and wrap the chains around them.

Time consuming is an understatement!
Are your tire chains made of gold or platinum!?
Can't understand why you would do that lol

I've been around tire chains for 55 years. I've never saw one rust thru. Guess I just haven't lived long enough yet.
I thought I was OCD until I read this thread. I'm fine.

pretty sure they are just pulling your chain. :laughing:
I take the cross links off of mine and throw them in a tumbler to polish them to a mirror like shine. It is faster than the dremel method.

I removed my rear chains from the B2320 yesterday and hung them in the shed. Drove a 20d galvanized nail into 2 x 4 studs 16 inches apart and hung both sets of chains with one nail holding each side link. No problem holding the weight.
Oh, and I did not apply any rust prevention, they'll last a long time without it.

April 14, the road that goes to my woodlot is impassible, still covered with snow . It looks like the chains might stay till late May or June. Maple sugar production is all but done for this year, with one quarter of what we usually get. Temperatures were not good this year for the sap to run.
