In the future I will need to tow a 1989 Mustang GT from MI to FL, just once. I have read that it can sometimes be difficult to get this type car on a flat bed trailer because of the low clearance and ground effects.
So I figured a front wheel dolly might be the answer.
My question is whether or not I should drop the drive shaft when using a front wheel dolly.
I am thinking with a manual transmission that just leaving it in neutral would be enough. For what it's worth, this particular manual transmission uses automatic transmission fluid instead of regular gear lube.
Any suggestions would be appreciated.Moved to Dinghy Towing forum from Towing.
Disconnecting the drive shaft should remove all doubt and
some have been known to tow with the rear wheels up, front wheels down and steering lock on. My preference would be the trailer and there's always a way to drive it on and off.
