Guys, Is it safe to tow a teener with a two wheel dolly? If so do the front wheels go on the dolly or do you tow backward? 'preciate the help.

QUOTE(underdog @ Sep 29 2012, 01:30 PM)  Guys, Is it safe to tow a teener with a two wheel dolly? If so do the front wheels go on the dolly or do you tow backward? 'preciate the help. Like to see a picture of the dolly. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/biggrin.gif) I flat towed a Ford sedan from Virginia to California using a rented one, from U-Haul and it worked great. Towing front facing foward works fine, but some would not want to put the extra miles on the transmission/rear moving components. Others can jump in here, but if you towed it facing backwards,you'd have to center the steering wheel and figure out someway to keep it in place, otherwise the teener might be in the wrong lane. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/mad.gif) Which ever way, make sure the bearings are good and properly adjusted. Don't want anything falling off. |
