Hey John, It really depends on the type of mud; if it's really soupy, the product won't work; however, it worked in firmer, still slick mud.
It is not required to be clamped. To get traction, simply place it on the ground like a piece of wood.
There are two of them in each pack.
They handled my large, heavy pick-up truck with ease - This past winter, I used a lot of it. Class B, on the other hand, is much heavier.

THEY ARE DRAWN IN A SPECIFIC DIRECTION! DO NOT LAY THEM DOWN ON THEIR SIDE! A small label molded into the end of the piece indicates which side is up.
They were exactly what I needed to break free from my impasse. I put them next to the back tires and was able to get unstuck with just enough traction. They did an excellent job!.
We had to back up 100 feet, so we just kept putting these under the back tires, backing up a few feet, and repeating the process. I'd suggest getting a longer set, or possibly two.
When my Ford E-150 broke down this winter, I had no choice but to use these. In the snow, the 350 van became stuck. I slid them under the rear drive wheels, right side up, as indicated by the molded-in arrows. in the label "this side up" They were simply gripped by the tires. they were dragged down They were fired at a high rate toward the vehicle's front. To put it another way, they clung to the tires but not the ground. They shattered in several places when they collided with the vehicle's underbody. These were simply ineffective for me. br>br>.
I skimmed through a few reviews before making my decision. It appears that half of those who gave 4 stars didn't even use the product. br>br>I found myself in a difficult rough-and-tumble situation. In my front-wheel-drive van, there was a lot of rocky sand. "Perfect opportunity to try these out, as they've been sitting in my closet for over a year," I reasoned. " It's better suited to being used as a shoddy shovel. " br>br>Either there was too much traction and driving would simply kick the thing out behind your wheel, or there was too little traction and the tire would simply rub up against it with no effect.
On the way up the hill, a neighbor's car became stuck. We purchased these last winter but did not need them. They came in handy a few days ago and did an excellent job. br>br>A car belonging to a neighbor became stuck on the hill while attempting to turn into a driveway. Someone attempted to tow the vehicle but was unable to do so due to a lack of traction. Then I pulled these out and placed them directly in front of the front tires. The tires gained traction and the car was able to enter the driveway with the help of a few of us pushing it. br>br>A few years ago, we had a pair that looked like these but were gray and shorter. They also worked, but they vanished after we aided another neighbor who was stranded. I decided at that point that the next set (these ones) should be a bright color so that I could keep a better eye on them. They won't get lost in the snow, and people won't be able to simply walk away with them. br>br>I also like how they can be folded. This makes storing them in the back of the car in the winter a lot easier.
I'm kicking myself for not opening the box sooner; these could have come straight from a gumball machine!! Junk that is worthless, thin, and tiny. I'm still stuck, to put it mildly. When it flew up into it, they both slid out quickly, with one front fender damaged. DO NOT squander your cash on these!.
br>br>Last summer, I bought these traction mats, assuming I'd need them, and tossed them behind the seat. I'm glad I did because they were able to get the truck moving again so I could get to town for a doctor's appointment. br>br>Look at the direction of the treads on the mat; you want them to bite into the snow or they'll just slip out under the truck tire; you might need to put them in front or back of the tire to get enough movement to free your vehicle.
