    Chain size

    I searched, but I couldn't find a concise answer.

    Went for a ride yesterday, and ended up breaking a primary chain. Did I read somewhere that the axle chains are #50 but the primaries are a different size? 1997 max IV

    After I posted I thought back and I think he could have #50 but I am sure thy put #60 on in the later builds.

    I'll dig in to it later, see if there's something stamped on the side of the chain. After the day I had yesterday with it, I don't even want to look at it right now lol.

    I don't see a jackshaft in the machine at all. The chain I'm referring to goes from the sprocket on the T-20, down to the rear axle below it.

    Max IV's don't have jack shafts, the M II and Buffalo Truck do.
    My M IV is a 2005 and has 530 (same as 50, but of oring style).
    I'd think comparing the chains might reveal the size (I'm thinking its 50).
