Reason: moved thread from Max forum to general forum since it applies to multiple brands of six wheelers
Max IV has a high out put heater,custom cab, windshield wiper,suspension seat,new hydraulic brakes ,cargo rack on the front ,,,and I'm loving every minute of this .
Diamond still makes really good chain. and it was always made in USA. I purchased enough for my attex about three years ago.. The size was Diamond 625 (high strength hoist chain). At the Attex factory we used it on the two rear's on the Superchief's. I have never seen a piece break. I used it on the whole machine. Good stuff. My Race machine has it all around also.
I hope its still made in USA. I believe you need the next bigger size tho for a max IV. I purchased it from Bearing Service in Pittsburgh, PA. They had to order it in. Don't forget to get the special matching master links..
You need to squeeze them on with vise grips and a nut. And you need a chain breaker to get them off.
Watch ebay for good deals on chain. I found 20' of 50-2 and 30' of 60-1 Diamond (made in USA) chain, new old stock, still in the box, with manufacture dates of 02' and 03' . All, including shipping, under $250. Just takes some patience and time. The deals are out there.
I was just looking on ebay.. 10' 50-1 Diamond Chain, new old stock, in box. Buy it now for $24.99 + $12 shipping.. = $37.00.
