Today I found out how tough the super chief is while hauling @ss around the yard my right rear chain broke at a bad time I needed it to turn I ran through the 80 year old barn breaking planks the machine stopped with the front axles up over a 8" foundation the body popped right out and it did not even bend an axle.Now on to my question the slack adjuster on the rear chain the sprocket came off the bearing looks like it needs to be pressed back on has this ever happened to any of you? no one was hurt if the barn did not give it would have been bad just can't believe no damage to the machine other than the paint I need to remove came off

while at the rodeo my chain broke during the keyhole had to be towed back to my parking area. the guy towing with a 4x4 wheeler never looked back once. He pulled up near my cart and hit it with my 6x6 right on the gate. The cart was unhooked and pushed the cart 4 to 6 feet forward popped some welds on the mesh loading ramp and scratched my body band. I was in the 6x6 with no way to steer had it in nuetral
