I'm planning on towing a roller home tonight on a dolly that has no tranny or engine. Because of this, the axles will flop around and cause problems. My plan is to tow it backwards on the dolly. I'm not sure if the steering wheel lock works, but if it does not, does anyone have any suggestions on how to achieve a steering wheel lock? I was thinking of fixing the steering wheel itself by means of a lever, but I'm wondering if there's an easier way that I could do at the rack, etc. Or would it be easier to remove the axles and tow it
forwards? I've never done it so I don't know whats involved with that. Thanks Tony |

Then do the opposite of what they tell you. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/huh.gif)
