I've never attempted to weld chain, so I'm going to ask why is it such a pain? I'm assuming it's because it's tedious, because there are so many weld points that need to be done or is it another reason?

How thick is the metal in the chain?

I usually put it in a vise, to let the vise hold it in place while I weld it.

Grounding issues seems to be the problem. The link dia. is about 1/4" and rusty

Drag that sucker around behind your truck and let it get cleaned up that way. You should not have any ground issues after that.
