Looking to tow travel trailer (2 axles, 8,000 lbs, 30' length) with 2500 6.7L Cummins 4WD to winter mountain locations. Not looking for bad driving conditions but want to be prepared.
Advice on traction device? Chains vs cables? (had to sign notice to ONLY use cables at vehicle purchase, but that doesn't seem widely accepted)
Advice on which axles to chain up? For the tow vehicle, every resource says REAR AXLE ONLY. What about the trailer? What is the highest priority axle to chain IF you were only going to do one.
Would it be reasonable to chain the tow vehicle rear axle AND one of the travel trailer braking axles (not sure if brakes are equipped on both axles)?
