Thought you were just down the road, from some of your comments..... ;) I am not aware of any such requirement. I am a farmer so much of the laws get ignored, but they are concerned about weight, weight, lighting, and weight. The pickup needs to be able to handle the gross weight of the trailer. If the trailer puts enough weight on the rear axle, then the axle will need to be beefed up until it becomes a dually. But not for any specific length, but for a specific weight.

I see clss 1/2, 3, & 4 chains in the store, does class 4 muster it or is this something beyond? Thabks, --->Paul of Klossner
