I was going over my spreader yesterday,in preparation for todays storm when I noticed Im getting thin on adjustment on my chain.This is my first V-box so I dont know how long they last.I can see the link holes are starting to elongate.I am just about out of adjustment now,I cant find any aftermarket so far-if anyone knows where I can get a new chain for this spreader.It is a Bradford SS ST model and its an 8fter. .85yd capacity.I looked at CPW ,no listing. I havent tried my selling dealer yet,I wanted to get a price so I know if he's reaming me.I have kept this chain well oiled and covered all winter,but I guess that stone-dust is more abrasive than sand.Has anyone ever removed a link or elngated the slots on the front to get more adjustment.If I did this I would have a new one on the shelf in case it broke.Id like to get as much as I can out of the old one,at the rate they wear.Thanks John D<p>----------<br>John D<br>
