    What is the preferred method to chain up a set of b-trains? That is what trailer tires are you putting the drag chains on?

    Are the drag chains singles or triples like the drives?

    IF, and that's a big IF, I would put a single at the bridge. Put it in an axle that doesn't ABS.

    What i would do/suggest is--get those chains and practice in the yard/lot before you have to throw them on. It is isn't real world chaining,but you will get a bit of practice before you actually have to do it. Knowing how to throw those on can really save your butt.
