I would fab it with a welder,torch,angle iron and flat metal. Weld links to bottom side. Can't imagine anyone ever pulling the rod and removing then replacing chains. My Woods doesn't throw enough out to make it worth while...yours might?

I made my own years ago also...measured pictures in my operators book and scaled them to the mower...bought a blank piece of metal and measured it out for my blacksmith...he notched the chain holes and bent the angle...I made the rod and cut the chain links and drilled my own mounting holes after lining it up on the mower.

I was at the farm today and remembered to check. I have a 172 that has the front set of chains. If enough interest I would reproduce some like original. Thanks Tracy

Guys, thanks for the replies.I ended up having these made by Schmidt Machine Company in Upper Sandusky Ohio and they did a wonderful job on them.
