Just what we were hoping for.
Daniel –
Got the duo grip chains for my skid steer, then ended up not having enough cross links to cover the full circumference of the tire. The customer service is outstanding! In there efforts to make sure I was able to make them work and sent out the extra chain I needed and links to attach with. Highly recommend.
Customer –
It was stated free returns. They didn’t safely fit kubota without compromising the machine. I had sent product back two months ago with no refund. Now I am out $800
