[QUOTE="pafree, post: 339473, member: 12776"] i want to add a little weight to my short bed 2wd chevy S 10 for the forecasted ice and maybe snow. i don't have any plans to go anywhere but just in case work calls me in early. i have a lot of years of mud play and i know weight over the back helps with traction and i know not slam on the brakes on the ice. i have three bolt buckets that will hold 50 lbs of corn that i filled with water and one i put all my pull'em out chains in. my question is would it be better to put the buckets in the very back of the truck by the tailgate or up my the cab which on my little short bed is right in front of the rear axle. should i drop the tire pressure like i do for the mud? it has been 15 years since we had a MAJOR ice storm and i had a front wheel drive car then.
