On the chains...if they are new..great, but if they have been stretched any amount, don`t use them. Also if the chain shows any place where it has been drug along on the ground, that section of chain, if used, cuts down your overall capacity. It will get you a ticket especially if you are only using one in the front and one in the back. A chain that the DOT officer deems as damaged can be considered partially unsecured. Use the four heavier chains and good wratchet binders and secure the excess loose chains. Should be good to go..good luck.
