Has anyone bought the large 33.5" tire chain pliers from Tirechains.com? Do they really work on 3/8" tire chains?
I got my chains in, and the small pliers I got won't budge the big 3/8" chain for the rear tires. Unfortunately, my rear tires must be way at the bottom of the size range for the chains they sent me, and I have to remove a cross chain.
Spent a couple hours with a sledge hammer and some steel breakers just trying to get one side of a cross chain off. Don't really feel like go through all that 3 more times if those heavy duty pliers will do the trick in 5 minutes. I may hit up the hardware store looking for a cold chisel tomorrow, but wanted to see what folks think about the chain specific pliers.
