Chain count to carry on the truck?

Depends on state..
Looks like Calif requires 3 rail on front axle pulling doubles and rear outsides. According to the pics.

 

Says right in the first paragraph about WA that spares are required.

 

Yep.

Forgive me for forgetting.

 

You’re not allowed to forget!

And you know this year will be the year you get checked in WA too. Lol

 

Colorado was checking the last week of August, they simply verified you actually had chains. The minimum requirement is 4 singles in Colorado, enough for each outside drive tire. There is no requirement for spares or for a drag chain, that up to you the driver or your company. Personally I carry 6 singles, enough for my 4 outside drives and 2 spares. One thing to keep in mind, chains are not light, so the more you carry, the more extra weight you're dragging around.

Actually, a week ago I pulled all mine off my hanger (carry them year round), inspected for damage and rehung them, checked all my bungees and called it good to go.

 

I’m a very visual person myself. Throw a bunch of information at me, I may get it, I may not. But throw a visual of some kind at me and everything becomes clear.

 

In Oregon its 4 on outer drives and 1 on each side of trailer,plus 2 extras.Need 8 on you.

 

OMG, enough with the spares already. Even CA doesn't mandate spares, it's just rediculous. Keep your 6 in good shape and roll.

 

Sorry, but the facts can’t be ignored. Spares are mandatory in Washington state.
