Tow dolly alignment (fixed frame)
Hello everyone, New to the forum here. Just purchased a used tow dolly (can't tell the brand or if it was home made). I have rented and used some before, but first time I buy one. The issue is that...

Thank you for your responses.
VintageRacer: I was afraid of that. I did read on a towing forum that you can still re-align the fixed frame dollies by having one of those frame machines bend it back into alignment. Is this possible? And if so, where?
mrekim: I will do that today when I go back home and post the results of the more exact toe measurements.
vic46: That sounds like a possible solution. How bad do the tires wear when having this low of a PSI? And if I understand it correctly, the final pressure of the tire should be 10-15 PSI, correct? Not just dropping the pressure 10-15 PSI. The reason I am asking is because I am towing a car (gift for my brother) about 550 miles, then towing the empty dolly back those 550 miles. I don't know if it would affect it somehow. I will still try it tonight or tomorrow to see if it works.
