My last few builds I have started using the DID X Ring Chains rated at 8120# average tensile strength.

I'm running the RK X-Ring Chain.  Installed 3/2011, adjusted a few times and it pretty much is good to go now with my 70+HP sand abusing quad.  I tried a non-o-ring chain and it lasted ONE trip to Glamis and was worn out.  ONE TRIP!
