They're a great tool.....in the hands of people who know how to use them. These guys want to over-tighten everything so stuff doesn't fall off....
We checked to see if the studs were stretched like suggested earlier in this thread and they were so we replaced all of them. That set of duals...
They usually hand turn them to start.
The one driver we have unlocks the tail gate and put the chains on, starts driving when the gravel or sand starts coming. If too much is coming...
Thanks!! The last one the guy blew both tires and when all the costs were added up it was over $900.00 plus 5 hours downtime because he wrecked...
Thanks! I'm hoping I can show the boss this would be cheaper than blown tires, repairs and downtime. Better fuel economy would be a bonus.
The only requirement should be that your ELD complies with all the regulations. Maybe he's getting a kickback from those companies lol. I'd be...
Looking to for some advise from anyone using them. Approx. cost and if they're cost effective ie. better fuel economy, longer tire life. We have 2...

If you're coming in to Ontario here's the site to get the info you need. Online contact form takes a while for them to get back to you though....
Try local truck wrecking yards, I've had good success finding what we need.
We didn't how many times a week until I called him yesterday. I have a feeling he was giving it a couple of extra clicks as well, which stretched...
We torque to 500. Was only going to try 600 to see if they were over torqued. The one driver thinks he needs to torque all wheels 2 or 3 times a...
Steel rims and they all snapped off. I know they were all checked before the truck left the yard because I was there, nothing was loose, it rained...
Can anyone to tell if wheels have been over torqued? Seems I can't win in the wheel department. I have a driver who just went on holidays so we...
Love the idea of a stupid tax! I would be able to retire in a couple weeks lol
