Dolly Towing

Two-Wheel-Drive Vehicles

Two-wheel-drive vehicles should not be towed with the
rear wheels on the ground. Two-wheel-drive
transmissions have no provisions for internal lubrication
while being towed.

Two-wheel-drive vehicles can be dolly towed with the
front wheels on the ground provided that the wheels are
straight and the steering column has been locked.

Four-Wheel-Drive Vehicles

Use the following procedure to tow your vehicle:

1. Drive the vehicle up onto the tow dolly.

2. Shift an automatic transmission to PARK (P), or a

manual transmission to FIRST (1).

3. Turn the engine off, but leave the ignition on.

4. Firmly set the parking brake.

5. Securely attach the vehicle being towed to the tow

dolly.

{

CAUTION:

Shifting a four-wheel-drive vehicle’s transfer
case into NEUTRAL can cause your vehicle to
roll even if the transmission is in Park (P) for
an automatic transmission, or if your vehicle is
in gear, for a manual transmission. You or
others could be injured. Make sure the parking
brake is firmly set before you shift the transfer
case to NEUTRAL.
