[Fot] Fwd: Towing a GT6

[Joe Curry]

I don't think I am getting all the posts lately.  I see replies like this
one to posts that I never saw originally posted.  I think Mark has more
problems than just with AOL (which I am not on)!

But I would advise against flat towing a GT6 or Spit.  Even with the
driveshaft disconnected the rear wheels are turning and you would not be
able to hear any problems that might develop from the cab of the tow
vehicle.  The same applies with using a dolly.

The best thing is to get all 4 wheels off the ground.

Any thoughts?

I guess he could remove the driveshaft, but I suggested a tow dolly.

Hi Andy,

Do you have any experience towing a GT6 long distance with a tow bar
(all 4 wheels down)?

I know to disconnect the drive shaft.  With the rack and pinion
steering will it track ok?

My main concern, how to connect the towbar to the GT6, is the front
bumper ok, or do I need to have a bracket made up to bolt to the GT6
and how?

Any advice would be appreciated.

Thanks.

Eric
