steering immoilizing

Does some company make special straps for immobilizing steering wheels?
  • Because of the issue with the new Jeep Cherokees and the "wobble" problem some folks were having to try this in order to tow the 2014 to 16 Cherokees. If you are towing one of these PLEASE contact your dealer and get the wiring harness that keeps the electronic steering working while towing. Many did not want to think this was a problem, but after so many of us complained and did not give up, they finally found the solution (maybe). Good Luck!
  • When we were towing for the collision shop (family business) we carried a collection of bungie cords to tie down the steering wheel when having to tow rear end up. This was before dollies (or at least, we never bought dollies). There is almost always someplace to hook the other end of the cord strapping a wheel.
  • One would surmise that the OP wants to tow from the rear with only the front tires on the ground.
