    I looked into this before but ended just taking a link off the chains. The chains were hitting the wall of the spreader at the time. Pic below is from local COOP. Elia Tinsley is the name on the bucket. I searched that name and Caulfield came up.

    Give these guys a ring (Caulfield in Cork). If they don't have your size they might point you to someone else.

    I'd try and get the same size if possible. Remember to allow for ware over time, chain will tend to get longer.
