I was looking at getting some of those for my mom so if she needed to "chain up" it'd be easier for her. I mean she's 82 so she doesn't need to be slinging iron.
Fine for mud, good for getting you somewhere that you have to be on ice, and priceless on the front tires when you have to get back down a mountain or leave it until spring.
What chains would you recommend for a TJ with 33s? I don't want super heavy duty or anything but decent ones that will get the job done. I'm planning some winter trips this year and feel it's better to be prepared.
I built my own, light TRIGGS SUPERSINGLES, originally off semi truck
Tire Size 11R / 22.5
( needed shortening, plus I added extra cross links for smother grip)
- crosslink overall length is 16” and wraps my 33/12.5/15” COOPER STT PRO excellent
- instead of using bungee cords , I use inner tube sections with hooks attached to keepem snug !!!
- as mentioned by others, don’t use chains for snow wheeling,
- practice installing them on a nice sunny day and if you’re ever approaching terrain where you possibly Might need them, don’t wait, just put them on before you’re in a predicament lol ( been there-done that )
OK, so there are TONS of Jeeps pulling semi truck videos on youtube, but this was in the feed and think it is well worth the one minute watch....little fella helping Grandpa get unstuck LOL
