All-Wheel-Drive Vehicles

Notice: Towing an all-wheel-drive vehicle with all

four wheels on the ground, or even with only two of

its wheels on the ground, will damage drivetrain

components. Do not tow an all-wheel-drive vehicle if

any of its wheels will be on the ground.

If your vehicle is equipped with all-wheel-drive, and the

Silverado SS package, your vehicle was not designed

to be towed with any of its wheels on the ground. If your

vehicle must be towed, see Towing Your Vehicle on

page 4-62.

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 2-49 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.
