Re: Weird Chain tensioner.
For a drive base with skid steer & direct drive for your center wheels I would agree with "joeweber" that there is no need for chain tensioners. When the chain stretches to a length you deem too loose, then change the chains out. The tensioner may give you the illusion that your chains are in good condition when in fact the chains are still stretching you just dont know how much. Dont get me wrong, tensioners are nice but in my experience they are not always required. But I also like #25 (1/4") chain for everything.
