Rear Towing (Rear Wheels Off the Ground)

Two-Wheel-Drive Vehicles

Use the following procedure to tow your vehicle

from the rear:

1. Drive the vehicle onto the dolly.

2. Firmly set the parking brake. See Parking

Brake on page 133 for more information.

3. Put an automatic transmission in PARK (P)

or a manual transmission in FIRST (1).

4. Follow the dolly manufacturer’s instructions to

attach and secure the vehicle being towed to

the dolly and then the loaded dolly to the

tow vehicle. Make sure the wheels are straight

before towing.

For manual transmission vehicles, make sure

the wheels are straight before proceeding

to the next steps. On automatic transmission

vehicles, use an adequate clamping device

to ensure that the front wheels are locked into

the straight position.

5. Release the parking brake only after the

vehicle being towed is ﬁrmly attached to

the tow vehicle.

6. Turn the ignition to LOCK.

If the tow vehicle will not be started or driven

for six weeks or more, remove the battery

cable from the negative terminal (post) of the

battery to prevent your battery from draining

while towing.
