I have a '99 6x4 TH(?) with one bad front shock.Where can I get 1 or 2 for replacement(used-good)
Also, how do you tighten, if possible, the drive chains.
One is much looser than the other.
Thanks

You need to jack up the side you want to adjust. With the park brake set, turn the rear wheel forward against the transaxle resistance. The amount of slackness (sag) should be 8 - 25 mm (0.3 - 1.0 inches). To adjust,you need to loosen the rear axle housing bolts and move the axle housing. There is an adjustment bolt sticking out the back of the machine.
The axle housing bolts should be tightened to 66-90 lb/ft. ....
