how'd you attach them together?
I borrowed a tire chain spreader/crimper tool it opens up the crimped ends connecting the crossbars to the side chain links then you remove the desired number of links for your particular tire width and re-crimp connecting the crossbar to the side chain. I did have to cut the side chain fastener connecting link and weld the last link back together after making the side chain the proper length for the diameter of the tire. If you don't have a welder you could use a repair link to reconnect the chain fastener back together with the side chain after proper length has been determined.
Sounds like a lot of work but with the tool its only about a two hour project maybe a bit longer you first time.
