OK, so I made the mount for my trucks snow plow. 

The truck is a duellie, but not 4 wheel drive.  While I do need to put 
more weight on the back, I was also thinking about getting a set of snow 
chains.

Couple of questions...

Should I get the snow chains made for duellie or just a set for the 
outside wheel?

Should I get the 'V bar' or any other special types?    (Note, the chains 
are not for highway use, they are just for me to plow the driveways here, 
one of which has a pretty steep hill.

Any recommendations on where to buy them?

Here are two places that seem OK...
