Adding links to a skip tooth

[Gully]

Anyone able to do this if I send it to ya? I have a real nice Diamond I need 2 links added to. I already tried 2 links and masters and it just looks funny.

I could do it for you.

Get a chain breaker and do it yourself! Pretty easy!

Get the cheap black one and break tabs out and chain fits right in !

Do you have a link or part #?

The metal link guide channel too narrow for skiptooth width, so used dremel to grind off metal tab to fit skiptooth. See red arrow kmc tool from Amazon. I prefer large hand held tool vs mini size chain tool. But probly motorcycle chain tool works too, and cheaper with no need to modify.

I'll give it shot as I have a good donor chain. Sure would save looking for chains all the time. Thanks!!

Would the pin be larger on the MC tool?

Good point. Not sure. Bike pin fits for sure

I already ordered the KMC and will grind off the guide. I now see I missed a thread from a while ago about this subject. Thanks!!
