Default Tire Chains

I need to make a set of chains for both my 122 and 1450. Is there a chart somewhere that tells apx how long and wide the finished chains should be. I will be making these out of odds and ends of other chains I have around.
thanks

Dang that sounds like a lot of work! I've never seen a chart that tells the length and width's of different sized tire chains. If mine were off right now I'd measure them for you Ya might want to keep your eyes open for some used ones for sale or trade. I picked up a few pairs that friends were giving away over the years...

I have sets of chains off of other garden tractors as well as car and truck chains. On the Wheelhorse I just sold I ran chains year round. The tires on the 1450 I have will spin sometimes in the grass while mowing and I hate that. I need to get a set of chains put togather for it and the 122. I have some heavy truck chains I wanted to get made for this winter and a set of lighter ones for mowing.

Cub Cadet is a premium line of outdoor power equipment, established in 1961 as part of International Harvester. During the 1960s, IH initiated an entirely new line of lawn and garden equipment aimed at the owners rural homes with large yards and private gardens. There were a wide variety of Cub Cadet branded and after-market attachments available; including mowers, blades, snow blowers, front loaders, plows, carts, etc. Cub Cadet advertising at that time harped on their thorough testing by "boys - acknowledged by many as the world's worst destructive force!". Cub Cadets became known for their dependability and rugged construction.

MTD Products, Inc. of Cleveland, Ohio purchased the Cub Cadet brand from International Harvester in 1981. Cub Cadet was held as a wholly owned subsidiary for many years following this acquisition, which allowed them to operate independently. Recently, MTD has taken a more aggressive role and integrated Cub Cadet into its other lines of power equipment.
