- If you need to put on chains, better to know how BEFORE you need to.
Make sure to read your owner's manual to make sure you get the right chains.

Great tutorial.
Thanks!
Good stuff and thanks for sharing, very straight forward too. Only question I have is, you mentioned you have a trailer and I was curious to know if you also have to put chains on those tires and/or on one set of tires for dual axle trailers? Much appreciated!
I don't "have to" but if you have trailer brakes it's definitely a good idea. Trailer brakes can lock up very easily, and at that point they become skis.
Out the chains on before you get stuck. Some vehicles don't have enough clearance in the wheel well to use chains, so think about that before you buy a set of chains that won't fit. If you can't use chains, get a set of studded snow tires.
The change you have their antiques the new ones work much better than your showing their
Thanks, that was great! HOW FAR DID YOU GET BEFORE THE PHONE FELL OFF YOUR RUNNING BOARD ;)
I have some vbar chains and they are way too close to the shock. stock size is 275/55R20 (10.8" wide) factory wheels. The tires in the video are 275 (10.8 as well) - Nice video and to the point. Just wanted to stress, using small light duty chain or cables on f150's is the only way to go. The shock is way too close and even ladder or regular chain is iffy.. Cables will be no problem but disappointing f150 dont have clearance for vbar or even most chain.
Great video! Thank You Sir! I don't have the bungie cord, have you run them without them before?
You could, but I wouldn't recommend it. At the very least run to harbor freight and buy a set of Bungie Cords. You want the chains to stay tight as possible
It’s always best practice to put on all 4 wheels even in 2wd.
Absolutely. All 4 is best, but TECHNICALLY... you arent supposed to put these chain on the front, only cables. So I didnt want to show me doing that
What tires are those ??
I'm not seeing any way to connect the chain ends
Thank you for explaining this I’m going to have to watch a few videos on this. I’m a woman I live alone but I live rural so I have to learn all these things boy there’s so much to learn isn’t there
You can do it! It's not hard, but practice before you need to do it for real
I have a 2 wheel drive silverado, do I only need a set for the rear tires only?
Yup! And consider throwing some weight in the bed
@@TruckStuff1 thanks!
You need all 4 tires in chains. Think about it. Roads bad enough you need chains so you’d leave two wheels slick?? Don’t believe me just google it
Why can’t you put the chains in the front? My truck is slipping all over the place so I need to put them on up here in Big bear. U fortunately I don’t have 4wd.
Most truck manufacturers don't recommend the front because the chains can hit a lot of components like brake and vacuum lines when the wheels turn. You could potentially run some class S cables but that would be as far as I'd push it. Your manual will tell you what is recommended
What size snow chain are you using for those tires?
There designed for 35s but I can snug them up to fit my 33s
What kind of snow tiers do u have nice truk by the way
They are Falken Wildpeak and I love them!
annoying music
Why do have a mask on, I'm not going hurt you.
It's a gaitor to keep the wind off of my face because wind chill was below 0.
We all know why he has a mask on
