Also if at all possible try to direct drive the center wheels. We did that for the first time this year and it makes things so much simpler. Then you only need 4 chains so the only extra weight over a 4 wheel drive design is the weight of 2 wheels and sprockets which is probably 1.5 lbs. We have always gone with the center wheel lowered 1/8" with both kit wheels and colsons and have never had a problem.
