Product Description
The ShurTrax All Weather Traction Aid for Full Size Pickup Trucks and SUVs safely and cleanly adds handling, traction control and traction weight over the rear axle, preventing axle hop and wheel hop. Simply add up to 400 pounds of water using a simple garden hose along with the included fill fitting. Four brass grommet tie-downs allow for safe, secure weight that improves vehicle balance, handling, cornering and traction on wet, slippery roads. ShurTrax answers the safety concerns of alternative sources of weight such as sandbags, concrete blocks, cord wood and other potential projectiles. Baffles are die-electrically welded into place to prevent surging during cornering. No need to worry about carrying cargo on top of ShurTrax, it has been tested to support 500 pounds. ShurTrax integrity is protected by a tough 25 millimeter vinyl outer chamber. This outer chamber vinyl is UV resistant and reinforced with woven nylon mesh for long service. The inner chamber is also 25 millimeters thick and flexes, enabling a smooth ride and improved handling. Included is a three year, "no-hassle..

The only complaint I have comes at the end of the winter when I have to empty it. Due to the 'X' shaped channels on it, I can never get all the water completely out. This of course means that when I've removed as much water from it as possible, the darn thing still weighs a good 50 pounds and doesn't fold very easily for storage the rest of the year. This is the only reason I don't give it 5 stars.
For anyone wondering if the ShurTrak is worth the money read the following... Last winter I was at a stop waiting to make a left hand turn and a small Subaru car traveling 50 mph hit me from behind causing $8000 damage to my vehicle and totalling his vehicle. I had 2 rubbermaid containers (120 pounds of stone in each container) securely tied down with 2 inch ratchet straps in the bed of my truck. Both containers were jolted loose, flipped over and had stretch marks from the impact of the accident. Thankfully I have a tool box installed in the bed of the truck that might have prevented the containers from going through the rear window. In my opinion the ShurTrak is certainly worth the $132 I spent. I now have peace of mind knowing that I have added weight for traction and I don't have to worry about it becoming a projectile in the back of my truck.
