<p>There is no problem at all towing a car with a manual gearbox. No
need to remove the drive shaft. So you will be fine with the
Toyota box.<br>

the rear wheels on the ground? <o:p></o:p></p>

<p class="MsoNormal">Michael Oritt- Did you ever get an answer

<p class="MsoNormal">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.<o:p></o:p></p>
