Are you using snap or ratchet binders?
Snap binders to take up as much as you can. Hook ratchet binder on either side of the snap binder and tighten. Remove snap binder and repeat on next chain.Dye Guardian, Bud A., bigguns and 1 other person Thank this. -

A ratchet will for sure get a chain tighter than a snap could. The snap in this situation is being used to pre tension the chain before pulling it really tight with the ratchet.
If you can't grab it by the axles below the suspension you need to remove as much travel from the suspension as possible. The more you can preload it with the chains the more it will take to make it go further. -
I just happen to have one binder thats seized up so I don't think buying one snap would be a bad idea
