Towing Procedure
General
CAUTION
The driveshaft must be removed before
towing the vehicle. Failure to remove the
driveshaft may result in damage to the
transmission.
Remove the drive shaft from the rear axle
before moving the vehicle, unless it only
needs to be moved a small distance for
safety reasons. When the transmission is
driven from the rear wheels without the en-
gine running, there is no lubrication in the
transmission.
Axle shafts must be removed if the vehicle
is to be towed at speeds over 25 mph
(40 km/h) or for a long distance. Openings
should be covered to prevent loss of oil and
entry of dirt and grit. Where oil-lubricated
bearings are used, openings should be thor-
oughly sealed with metal discs and new
gaskets before towing.
WARNING
If a vehicle with air suspension is lifted
by the rear frame member, there is a risk
that the air springs will separate from
the spring plates. When towing has been
completed, do not under any circum-
stances use your hands to reposition the
air springs. There is a great risk that
your hand will be caught between spring
and plate causing personal injury.
