According to my research, it is not necessary to place chains on all 4 rear wheels on a dually. Running chains on two of the tires is pretty common, although you would gain a bit more traction by using them on all 4 rear wheels.

We have an article that features additional information about snow chains, as well as a state-by-state breakdown of chain regulations. To see the article, use the provided link.
