Axle question regarding towing Options

[pneuhyde]

I have a 72 with 911 5 lug conversion. I had the engine out and wanted to repack the CV joints so I pulled the axles with the splined stubs out of the wheel housing, thinking it would be best to keep them all together and make it easier to re-install.
Now I need to tow my car to a new work space and found the wheels wobble around without the splined stubs in place.
If I install them then they will flop around while being towed.
I was going to use a u-haul two wheel tow dolly.
Can I mount it with the rear wheels on the dolly and and lock the steering wheel in place
to tow straight and will the rear wheels be ok to roll on and off the dolly?

Thanks,
Steve

If you've rolled your car with weight on the rear wheels, you've probably already irepairably wrecked your rear wheel bearings.

Can I mount it with the rear wheels on the dolly and and lock the steering wheel in place to tow straight...?

No, because your steering wheel will not lock in a straight-ahead position.

Thanks all for the comments and answers. I have not rolled the car without the stubs in place at all.
I had it up on all 4 corners and rebuilt all the brake calipers along with the CV's/axles (which were separated from the car already) and that is when it occurred to me that it would be easier to attach the CV's to the stubs if i pulled them out of the hub tunnel. Since the engine was out I elected to not put them back in the car for safe keeping until I was at that stage. I moved onto the master cylinder after finding it would not develop pressure after bleeding the brakes. I lowered the rear to the ground to make draining the brake fluid easy while I pulled the master cylinder. That is where it has sat, waiting for me to purchase a new 914Rubber master cylinder (IMG:style_emoticons/default/smile.gif)
And, as things go, I now have a need to move my car before I have the time to fully finish the work needed. I thought it would be less complicated to tow without the axles flopping around unattached to the transmission so i raised the rear end, installed my engine so I could move it all at once, went to check tire pressure while they were still up in the air
And found wobbly situation.
And yes, now I am concerned that even just the weight of the car sitting on them might have caused problems?

They are probably fine. Throw in the stubs, torque them down and carry on. If the bearings do go bad, oh well, nobody knows everything but chances are you are good. (IMG:style_emoticons/default/beerchug.gif)
