Dolly Towing 2014 Versa Note

Does the NOTE have a locking steering column?
If yes, did you tow with it Locked?
Or Unlocked?
What does the instruction sheet for the ACME dolly say about locking/unlocking the steering?

I do leave the steering wheel unlocked and the book sex to do that.

I'm interested in seeing that book. :)

Please excuse the fat fingering. I believe the book SEZ to leave the wheel unlocked.

I use a ACME surge brake dolly also. I tow a Toyota Highlander most the time and have not had any bearing trouble. You do have to leave the steering unlocked as the wheels on the vehicle turn as needed. It does sound like you may have had bad bearings to start with.

I assume that is a front wheel drive highlander?

Campinghoss and Bumpy thanks for the responses. Campinghoss how long have you been towing with your Acme. Sounds like we have the same dingy.

10-4 on the front wheel drive Bumpy.

I have around 7k on the ACME. We spent Christmas and New Year's in Florida which meant going thru South Carolina on I 95. There are sections of that road I swear test any vehicle. I have been in the Smokies going into TN with it which have some tight turns and as of yet never had any trouble. I was a tad concerned at first with the size of the dolly tires but they have not gave me a moment of trouble. The manufacturer is top notch from what I have seen. We picked ours up at the factory.
You do run the required 90 psi in the tires correct?

Hoss sounds like you have tested pretty good. Yeah the book sez 90psi. I have a hard time putting that much in a small tire like that. Do you run with the ramps bolted down in the spot for them in front? The Versa doesn't have much clearance and Im afraid going through dips the ramp might come up and damage the fiberglass so I put them else where.
