Expert Answers about Heavy Equipment Tire Chains


  • What Repair Link do I Need for My 7mm Pewag Tire Chains # PWE2439S?
  • Yes! To repair a single 7mm chain from the pewag All Square Mud Service Snow Tire Chains - 1 Pair # PWE2439S, you need the pewag Cross Chain Repair Link - 7 mm Thick - Qty 1 # PW707. If you need repair pliers that fit 7mm chain links, the Titan Chain Repair Pliers for Heavy Truck Snow Tire Chains - 22-3/4" Long # TCRP3S does the trick. It is important to note that if you need a whole replacement chain for one of the wheels, you would need to get a whole new set as a pair of 2. Unfortunately,...

  • Availability of Replacement Parts and Tools for Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains
  • The Titan Chain Alloy Snow Tire Chains # TC1555 that you referenced, which are confirmed to fit the 235/65-16 size tires on your Honda Odyssey, features a heavy-duty construction that should last a good while but we absolutely have replacement parts and tools that you can keep on hand in the event that something happens. I recommend adding the Titan Chain Repair Pliers # TCRP1 and a 4-Piece Link Set # TCRK-1 that will let you quickly repair and replace individual links. We do also have...

  • Are There Guidelines for Replacement Cross Chains on Pewag Snow Chains?
  • There is not necessarily a guideline for changing the cross chains for your Pewag snow chains. Chains and links can break randomly, so it would be a good idea to have replacements like # PWE6259 or # PWE6253 (depending on what chains you have) on hand for when they are needed, and I strongly recommend also using the Repair Pliers for Heavy Truck Snow Tire Chains # TCRP3. I've linked a review video on this product for you to take a look at.

  • Chain Hanger Recommendation for a Reese Weight Distribution System on a Trailer with Large Frame
  • If I am understanding your question correctly the issue you foresee with using a weight distribution system on your trailer is that the frame might make it difficult for attaching the chain hangers. We have just the product for this. You would want the part # RP58305. These will bolt onto the side of virtually any trailer frame and would work well for you. The Strait-Line Weight Distribution w Sway Control # RP66130 should work well for you, but before you order it I would recommend you...

  • Replacement Hub/Drums for Utility Trailer with Drum Brakes and Utility-Style Hubs
  • Thank you for the clear description and photo of your Hudson utility trailer and its hubs. You have what appear to be what we call 5-spoke utility hub/drums, part # 8-174-5UC3, shown on the linked page. With such hubs the wheels rest on the hub's outer rim. This hub is rated for use on 6K and 7K axles. In order to change these to more standard RV hub/drums you will need to know the inner and outer bearing parts. Any alternate hub has to use the same bearings or you will need to change...
