I have a bobcat 773, Bought 4 chains last winter from a man on e-bay, it made a world of difference in the snow, just be careful turning around on asphalt... Russb

I purchased a pair of chains for my 742B from my local Bobcat dealer. As I recall, they were Peerless truck chains but fit my flotation tires perfectly and are very strong.
The price was very reasonable and I have used them plowing snow for the past four winters and they are still in great shape. I just mount them on the back tires and that seems to work fine.
