Have you had time to enjoy any more crabs tootie? Another month or so and there done. I might try to get some next weekend. Oysters are coming in though.

Ha ha ha ha....

Steve, may I offer a tire chain suggestion-

This link shows how to tighten the cam locks:

There is additional info on how to remove extra links yourself.

You might want to recheck how much slack you have after all the cams are locked properly.

Thanks Bud, that was the exact web page I found this morning. One picture was worth 1,000 words. I got them on no problem then spent an hour with a hacksaw cutting off all the extra links.

I would suggest everyone do the same thing instead of being surprised. It's a nice feeling to know they fit and are custom to my truck.

My tires are low profile so I'm sure everyone will have to deal with all the extra links. I could have just used bungee cords but that would have been a royal pain trying to get the bungee on the inside of the tandems and the outside of the inside tires!!!

Oh yes, the crabs are GREAT!! Just remember....if you get out to the Northwest in Nov or Dec those big a$$ crabs are in Dunginess (sp??) Just make sure you have some Old Bay to dip em in.

Now Steve....where is your mind at these days....You know a few little crabs never hurt anyone.... :wink:

Ya, I know. I'm itching to get back out there. Hopfully I'll be on coast for a while now and no major things to deal with.

No thanks,when chains are required I feel that is the perfect oppurtunity for me to catch up on my sleep,plus I don't run out west.

O come on now mike3fan.....there is nothing like taking chains OFF in the pouring down rain with the ice and snow from your trailer going down your back and about 28 degrees out and soaking wet.....you cant tell me you want to miss out on that!! 8)

almost forgot to add your gloves are soaked your froze to the bone and you have to pee and there is nowhere to go!!!

Driving out west you just gotta LOVE it!! :wink:

I have a special custom place to pee anytime I need! 8)

Yeah, well you guys are lucky. You can whip it out and pee just about anywhere....but us gals....well we have to be a little more careful. :lol:
