"Pros: Provides good weight right over the rear axel. Easy to install. Cons: The garden hose adapter leaks in a steady stream."

"I bought as a Christmas gift for my husband and he loved the idea as he had never heard of them. They did help with the ride of the truck so it didn't feel like riding in a tank and also helped with the handeling in snow."

"bought two, one for my daughter and one for myself. Real big storm hit and these worked great. Grommets need c clamps to make them easier to tie down."

ShurTrax Traction Weight

Posted on 12/25/2007 by Steven A. - 2006 Toyota Tundra (Vernon,CT)

1 of 1 people found the following review helpful.

"Nice product and easy to install - just tie it off so avoid slipping and fill with water. I did have a problem extending the fill spout using the pull tabs - be careful. The plastic nozzle is quite rigid when cold. Other than that - it should work fine and provide enough weight to keep the rear in touch with the road."

FANTASTIC PRODUCT!!!!!!

Posted on 10/27/2007 by Thomas M M. - 2001 Ford F150 (Toms River,NJ)

"I have tried sand bags, actual weight plates you see in a gym. The weights never stayed in place and the sand was a HUGE mess. The ShurTrax is BY FAR a fantastic idea that I have already recommended to a few of my coworkers with pickups. GREAT PRODUCT!!!!!!!!"

Better than sandbags

Posted on 09/21/2007 by Robert L. (Newberg,OR)

"It does a good job providing traction. The fitting that allows you to connect a garden hose is worthless. Neither set of threads will tighten enough to stop leaking, so the only way to fill it is to hold the hose in place and not worry about getting everything wet."

perfect for lightnings

Posted on 03/13/2007 by Brian W. (Wilmington,DE)

"the full size provides a great way to get traction in all weather. i found that it does not move around at all on my vehicle, so no straps neccessary. this may be a different case according to which truck you own or bed lining. didn't really notice a change in gas mileage when full, but i also have a gaylords fiberglass x2000 tonneau cover with speedstur wing also purchased from autoanything. Thanks for doing business guys."
