Marriottsville MD to Woodside CA.

These are only for emergencies when I get caught in weather and have to chain up. My pickup date for the truck is October 7th, then driving it all the way from the east coast to California, so multiple mountain passes to deal with and there can be weather in mid October.

Yes, I understand all of that, but no point in tearing it if it can be avoided by making a smart choice in the chains I buy.:)

I was talking directly with Ken. I’ll text him and ask if he can get them. Since I had relayed to problem I was having getting anything from the distributor when I asked if he had them, I’m pretty sure he would have told me if he could get them.

I got the shouldered lug nuts from Ken, he unfortunately doesn’t have any of the CTI lug nuts.

Can anyone post a photo of these wheels with MVT’s from an angle that shows where the outside face of the well is relative to the sidewall of the tire. Looking various snow chain and prefer the SCC cable chains for cost and ease of installation, but it looks like the steel hooks for the tension...

So, looks like these include the tension band? Anybody have photos of these installed. Since I have aluminum wheels that have been freshly powder coated, I’d like not to destroy the powder coating. Due to the thickness of the aluminum, there is basically no dish in the wheel, so the outside face...

Thanks, yet again, GD!

Anyone know of a source for cable chains for 395/85 R20’s?

Well, I just hope I can find some of these nuts in the next couple of weeks or this new wheel and tire combo are going to be very expensive paper weights.

I have a feeling, the CTI lug nuts are going to be difficult to get a hold of. Does anyone know where these may be had other than straight from Hutchinson? If they end up being out of stock, I need a backup plan for the trip home with the truck.

So, I found a set of four of these wheels and they are currently being blasted and powder coated, then will get new MVT’s mounted. I have a question relative beadlocks. It seems there are two options, the split steel band beadlock that seems to be the standard issue with the steel wheels, or a...

T Thanks, planning to order the heated trucklite headlights, $350 a pair, but didn’t want to if it maybe had them already.

Would a 2008 A1R already have the Trucklite heated LED headlights?

Don’t know since the truck is still in Maryland. Next time I talk with Berend I’ll see if he has the engine serial#. Really not enjoying having to wait to get the truck:(

I think I'll pass on the the army's method:)

The C7 in the A1R I'm buying has yellow valve cover and the ACERT sticker is still intact, so likely not repainted.

Yes planning to pick up a few things, like a 3/4 breaker bar, on that end. Fortunately I'll either have my kid along with me or a buddy, so I can split tools across multiple airline tickets. Bought a full set of U-joints but will only take one or two with me. Also bought the tool to press out...

Thanks
