On a two wheel dolly. due to circumstances beyond my control I gotta drag my rig from north of Seattle to Phoenix Anybody towed this way?? She got no motor or tranny in her and my wife does'nt like the idea of a full size trailer behind her Grand Cherokee. (she's doing the driving , I have larger responsibilities) I'm a lttle concerned with the front end waltzing all over the place. Any experience with this??

I would convince your wife to just tow a trailer - tow dolly is just as wide and they bounce over all the place.

I would convince your wife to just tow a trailer - tow dolly is just as wide and they bounce over all the place. And consider that a U-Haul 'car transporter' (trailer...) will come with brakes. OK - they're surge brakes but WAY better than nothing - which is what you get with the dolly. So you get to stop Grand Cherokee + two dolly (about 1000 lbs) + 914 (figure ~ 2000 lbs) on brakes designed to stop the Jeep alone. |
