The adventures of 'Team Klingon'

We now have a set of Autosocks for super singles and a set for standard trailer duels.

 

Sweet, I have not needed mine yet but chaining no longer looks like a chore.

 

Now granted I have NOT checked into vary far yet for other states, but California and Colorado are the main states that we have to chain in. California is the only one that I know of that ALL levels of chain controls require drag chains on the trailer.

 

Washington has approved Auto Socks for class 8 trucks. I am not sure about Oregon but we try VERY hard to avoid Oregon

 

You know your not allowed to talk about the weather.

 

How do you guys like the on spot system? Do those autosocks work and how fast can you go with them? Shouldn't they be called trucksocks for a truck? I think the onspot would be nice to have just for piece of mind.

Specially when the road looks like that and you get to that 8% downhill grade. I miss my siped lug tires from my old truck. The new one keeps breaking loose when I use the Jake brake at times.

 

Have not used the Autosocks yet... Not even sure what states they are legal in yet. I know Colorado & Been told California. I know Washington allows them on cars but have not confirmed their use on trucks yet. We got them to use as drag chains when required.

On-Spots are legal even in California. You do need to watch the rules... If you have duels then you can have them on the main drive axle for min. Requirements. Maximum you will still need to chain the other drive axle.

If you have super singles, even for min. Requirements (California and a couple othe states) you will need to chain both. We installed the on-spots on both drives.
