So, you are saying that having the car loaded on a dolly with the wheels firmly strapped in place is the same as jacking it up so the wheels will steer freely?
Sorry, I still do not believe it!
The front wheels of a car can not help steer the dolly that they are firmly strapped to, whether the steering is unlocked or not. The tires of a non-steerable dolly will skid sideways when turning. Unlocking the steering of the car that is loaded on the dolly will not change that.
Again, I have watched the Acme video of their dolly in a 90 degree turn. The wheels of the car do not move!
Again I ask, exactly what damage to the car will occur if it is towed on an Acme dolly with the steering locked?
Email ACME and call their bluff and let us know what they say.
Why would they tell you to unlock the column if it wasn't necessary? Wouldn't it make it even all more the easier to do?
In the video you will see the steering will moving. No the front wheels do not move on the dolly, but the rest of the vehicle does.
