Q: check this website http//www.freeformplastics.com/automotive.html theres a company here in sask that makes plastic moulded forms. i got them 2 years ago. you fill these forms with sand and they interlock to fit in your truck bed. i leave them on all year get great traction in winter and makes the diesel 3/4 ton ride better. i think you get about 300 lbs they are interlocked to fit together down the center and the four corner forms are anchored down to truck floor. nothing to fly around i used to put 4 cement patio blocks for weight not a great thing to have in the back if you ever get into an acciden only problem they dont work if you have fifth wheel hitch brackets bolded in truck box and may burn alitte extra fuel yonzie looks like a good idea. how much $ .

tbone wrote but ya see roy the fact that i do drive mine in heavy and light snow without the weight in the rear clearly demonstrates that it is not needed. does it help im sure that in some situations it does but needed means that the truck cannot do it without it and with the exception of a few extreme cases it can. now you can all jump on your high horses all you want to about it but it doesnt change the facts and the fact is while it may help it is not needed. now i am done with this thread. you dont need cutting oil for the drill bit when drilling through steel either but it helps and makes it safer. its not needed but people with common sense use it anyway. of course the operative words here are common sense......... sorry jerry bad example. not using it there can overheat and ruin the bit so there it usually is needed but if you want to take far more time than necessary to keep the bit from overheating you can do it without oil. i have had no problem keeping up with and passing stuck traffic with my truck without the weight so it not needed. if conditions were extreme then i might but under conditions that any traffic can move my truck can as well and as well or better that most other vehicles on the road with me so it isnt. now please stop trying to redefine the language to make help and need mean the same thing they dont. -- if at first you dont succeed youre not cut out for skydiving .
