Snow Chains!!!

Well just got a home from work. I work out of town for four days and I got my snow chains in the mail (thanks Brody). Well I installed them on. Here is a few pictures

"Who's Brody ???" Where did you get the chains ?
I'd like to get a set for my "Super Summit"

I don't know what's going on either but in my last link in post #9 on this thread, there is a guy selling them on eBay:

But you can build them yourself they are very very simple to do.

HahA!!! My workbench was littered with single opened links, until I figured out what worked for me. They got all over the garage, esp when using an air compressor to clean the Summit without scooping up the loose links first..

I DID have a lot of fun, except for the fact that it refuses to snow here at all, and I live in the Rockies. Once I figured out how many links worked for me, I put together a set in about an 1/2 hour I believe. They add an over-the top look to my VW Baja body.

That link I posted in post #3 above gives you two valid different ways to build a set, there are detailed pictures and also measurements of the chain so you know what to buy. There are also a couple of threads going back that talk about constructing sets as well if you do a search.

I live near the rockies too and it won't snow here either. Otherwise I would already have some chains.

I've had two sets for about a year,set for the moab xl's and a set for the rock crushers......but alas no snow last year at all and this year got a little so far but it's not looking good...bummer

[Brasher]

cool might have to make some chains for my crushers, we got a foot and half of settled snow. but 2.5feet fell so far this season, only the bottom inch is ice hard and slipppery though, and the top foot and a half has been soft powder since it fell going on a month now, the temps havent got warm enough to melt it and freeze it so its still powder. if it ever hardens though chains would be nice.

Cool. I'll have to look for videos of these snow chains.

well i finally did some runs yesterday and last night and i have to say that these chains are awesome! I have video of a buddy and me with our summits doing some bashing in the yard will post video when i get the whole video done.
