[Healeys] 5-Speed towing

[alfuller194 at gmail.com]

For those of you who have converted to the Toyota 5-speed: can you confirm
it is OK to tow the car with the rear wheels on the ground? 

 

I towed a prior Healey with a Toyota W58 across country, and don't recall
having to remove the drive shaft - but can't be sure.

 

Michael Oritt- Did you ever get an answer on the Celica forum to whether the
W58 can be flat towed? 

 

I need to tow my Austin-Healey with W58 for about 300 miles [Las Vegas to
Los Angeles].

 

For those of you who don't actually know and want to speculate: Yes, I do
know I could jack up the car, disconnect the drive shaft, secure the shaft
in a way it doesn't let the fluid leak out nor fall off the car, and then
repeat in the business lot where I am delivering the car.

 

----------------

All the best,

 

Al Fuller
