Today I used what I have read here.

I have used the information here several times, today tho it paid off immensely.

Where I park when I'm home. Is very well taken care of. But the truck I drive is not snow friendly. It's a dirt lot that is plowed and often driven on by other trucks and parked there as well.

Every time i've come home I've had to be pulled across the lot about 225 feet to leave and it was rather bothersome and starting to tally up in cost.

This week I drop the trailer on the lot and left With the tractor to park on pavement. On my way back to the trailer, I was really dreading having to snatch it up knowing what was going to happen.

Then I remembered one of my most recent post about being stuck last time. One of the. Suggestions was presanding before parking the tractor. So I stopped and got a bag of 60 lbs of dirt. Then I was worried about stopping in the lot to hook up the chains.

So I stopped about a mile from where the trailer was. Applied the chains before I needed them. And took the car to the trailer and pre sanded the area.

I don't think I used enough sand because it did dig in a little bit. So I flipped the diff switch. As soon as I did that it pulled out like I was on pavement.

Just another thank you To all who help. I still read older threads. And glad I did. Thats where I learned chain before you need to.
Thanks again every one

 

They look quick and easy. Do you know if they work with disc brakes.

 

Smart, thanks.

 

@lester that's 99% of my issues. I only have one drive axle. The other is a dummy axle.

@Lyle H it is very well taken care of. But all of there trucks have 2 drive axles if need be. Where's mine don't, coupled with the fact I'm currently running super singles. Which I hope to change by November.
The sand, this truck just loves to sit still and roast the tires. The slightest spin and it turns into a Indy 500 car. So I bought the sand for traction. This is my first winter with this set up. And the ecas. Don't help at all.
