Towing of disabled Class C and pick up with camper

I’ve heard somewhere that it is best to tow a class C or a pick-up with a camper from the front end only. Reasoning was… if towed from rear, the weight that would be placed on front end is way over it...

Had our 1991 Class C towed. Good Sam saved the day. Guy knew his business. Front wheels up.

He said there is a rule he had to follow or get in trouble about disconnecting under the MH or not, depending on some distance and speeds IIRC. Can't remember the figures.

The garage was only a mile from the campground on local roads, so he didn't have to disconnect under the rules, and we were near garage closing time. (The MH needed a new starter). No problems.
