car dollys
 

why is it bad to tow a RWD car with a tow dolly? thats all. uhaul says not to do it and penske says you can but the driveshaft must be disconnected. i dont get it. my buddy did it with his chevelle. a good couple hundred miles as well

pinion angle? just a guess

er driveline angle....whatever the F you want to call it

if you do, you're supposed to back it on so the drivetrain isnt spinning the entire time.

i usually only tow FWD cars with a tow dolly, the main reason being you can lock the steering wheel and have it in park ON the dolly incase a strap comes loose.

its for the tranny. cuz when the car isnt running its just dry spining. if its an auto, back it on and leave the wheel unlock. we towed my buddies 83 fireturd that way home from penn(state college to danbury ct)

The reason is that the wheels will move certain internal parts of the transmission that need lubrication, but that comes from the engine running the pump.

edit: damn ... little late

cool beans. so i guess a full trailer if i do decide to tow.

You will end up dragging the Camaro all the way to Connecticut. I would go with a full trailer.

were ya gotta go? if ur heading up north to like upstate new york i think u can borrow our race trailer if u had 2

eastside performance in wallingford ct (~90 miles). they are tuning my car. its really hard driving this thing untuned so i wanna just tow it.

Jake I rented a full on Trailer from U-Haul for $75 bucks for the day and just had to buy a class 3 hitch ($35) for my dads Pathfinder. If you need to borrow the hitch just let me know and its your for the day.

haha no ****, ur gonna be going thru my neck of the woods. i can ask my buddy but idk if u want to come up to CT, grab the trailer head back down then come back up here

now i really wish i saved a lil more and bout a 2500 with the cummings lol

i hear you on that. i wish my saturn could tow a little more... i gotta borrow my moms car to do the towing

my truck could tow ur car and trailer no problem but i was thinking bout doing something like that on the side for some quick money. my truck can handle 8K no problem(long as the tranny is outta O/D lol) only go thing bout tht gas hog magnum 360 and 4.10s

yeah i'm sure my saturn could do it if i had a class 3 on it, but i doubt the chassis would make the drive feel very safe. its kinda demasculinizing (is that even a word?) to have to use your moms car for towing.

in any event, mark my words. my first purchase when i graduate law school will be a chevy truck of some sort with the new 4.5 diesel. :drool:

forget the izuzu diesel, get a cummings much better diesel. esp if u get one with a stick, add a programmer and 5" exhaust:drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool: :drool:

those new ferd super dutys are looking real nice as well...

close, but no cigar. emasculating is what you were looking for, if you meant:
1. to castrate.
2. to deprive of strength or vigor; weaken.
3. deprived of or lacking strength or vigor; njspeeder; effeminate.

:wink:

ROFLMAO

lol now thats funny!

Why are you going all the way to east side? there are alot of good tuners near you

all of em are too busy. eastside was the only one willing to squeeze it in. not to mention i heard they were one of the better dyno tuners in the area.

my dad has the SAME truck... its got balls... we have a 7k lb boat and it makes it up to candlewood lake (brookfield ct) no problem

yea im 15 minz from candlewood lake, im up in the mountains, i got teh sport model so it gave the 5.9 motors an extra 5hp and 10lb ft for some werid reason
