Time to take off the front mudflaps and chain up the front axle ......again!

 

On a 4x4 it is usually better to put tire chains on the front axle as pulling power is better than pushing power.

 

Be sure to grab more pictures!

 

You chain up the left front and the right front tire, not to hard to understand. Gives better traction in snow rather than chaining up the rear axle. Pulls you and the weight of the engine/front end makes you feel good when everyone else is stuck.

 

It makes perfect sense to a heterosexual.

Maybe you need a translater.

 

And yet again, im jealous.

 

we still dont have snow this year which sucks

but do you really need chains

is it another expected "blizzard"

 

You're a wuss if you need chains in this weather. I've gotten by just fine without them.

 

Several times, years ago I had to chain up all four corners to get to where I needed to go. When you do this, you will be amazed how much snow you can go through. Although, don't expect to be driving much above 20-25 mph. I had a 2000 lb warn winch with ****** blocks that double the capacity. Once when stuck out in the middle of no where, all chained up, winch ready and the only thing I could tie on to was a four foot, wind blown, wooden fence post about 200 ft from my truck. I waded through the deep snow, pulled on the post and it fell over. So much for the winch, called for help that time. But usually if I could secure my truck by chaining to a telephone pole or something, that winch could pull just about anything. Those were the good ole days. Edit, Just had to reminiscence a little and you are my victims.

 

Where I work Urban they had 38" of snow,plus drifts, chains sure as hell helped me. Plus I made some coin pulling Toyota's and Honda's out of snowbanks.

 

As far as the "axle" thing goes, I guess I reverted back as I used to drive a 18 wheeler years ago.

"82.3 inches of snow fell in a period of one week (from Monday December 24th, 2001 to Friday December 28th, 2001)."

 

Yea I had that at my house. But in all seriousness, I was giving you a hard time. Now that I know you charged to help people, I really think you're scum and I hope you stay out of my neck of Colorado.

 

 

I didn't charge, it was voluntered, they figured a cpl bucks would be cheaper than a $200 tow bill. Made enough to fill my 35 Gallon tank, if your an idiot and try to drive a Honda sitting 3" off the ground thru 24" of snow then you deserve to have your wallet lightened a little.
Go save a few puppies.
