Two things: (1). If you ever use one of these, make sure you understand that backing them with a vehicle on them can be a bear because the platform the front tires rest on has a swivel point in the middle. A regular trailer has one swivel point at the hitch. A tow dolly with a car on it has two swivel points very close to each other, and that makes backing it quite a bit trickier. If you get in a situation where you have to back it, and you can't figure out how to do that, you might have to take the car off the dolly and then put it back on after getting turned around. (2). I had the guys at U-Haul help me secure my car on one of these. I didn't realize it at the time, but somehow the ratchet on the left front tire was backwards. It came loose while towing, and the front left tire of the vehicle came off the platform. Thankfully the chains held it and I was able to get to the side of the road and fix everything. In short, double check everything before towing. If you had help, don't trust that the helper did it correctly.

One side clicked three times, so do as they say and always check the straps periodically. Also, one tie down chain fell off. Reconnected it with a little more tension and everything was fine; I guess you don't want TOO much slack. Again, thanks for this video. Follow all directions, especially the speed restrictions, and you'll do well.

I was a tow driver, and I see there 2 potentially fatal mistakes! Twisting chains (unsafe, and potentially damaging or breaking them), and those straps laying on loading ramps during loading, which may cause a wheel slip, and falling the car from the ramp, and/or straps damage... Except of this, that dolly looks good for me :) Maybe loading ramps may be detachable, because sometimes there maybe will not be enough space under a car floor to raise them and retract them to the dolly. And be careful about that mud fenders while sharp turns, they can damage towed car... :)

@msmgap2 жыл бұрын
I'm a professional driver, included in my career is tow dollies and 4- wheel carriers. I agree about the chains up to a point, but I've never had wheel slip from the straps being on the ramps. Wheel slip MAY occur IF there's too much power on the drive wheels during loading, which isn't necessary to safely get the towed vehicle on the dolly. The weight of the towed vehicle keeps the straps flat & non-slipping. Actually, in some cases, the straps can provide additional tire grip in the ramp.

A few things you should never do. #1 laying the straps on the ramp and driving over them. They could get wrappe4d in the wheels and damaged. #2 Never use a seatbelt to secure a steering wheel. They are too smoth and slick to grip and secure the wheel.. Instead, use about 5 feet of 3/4" nylon rope. fold it in half, wrap the looped end through the steering wheel, and then through itself. then pull it tight out the driver's door (not at the hinge but at the back)close the door securi89ng the rope in the door jam. then tie 3 knots from the outside securing it as close as possible to the door jam. #3. Never twist chain to take up the slack if a quick force was exerted on it like the car falling off, the chain most likely would snap.. For all chains used in towing, if you have extra slack, use bungee cords to hold it in place. make sure to use plyers and pinch the bungee cord hooks on a link of the chain. This must also be done at the hitch. Using bungee cords keep the chain off the ground, and still allows a tight turn.

PSA: Make sure the pivot plate on the dolly moves, and that the bushings/bearings are serviceable. If the pivot plate does not move- towing a (older) vehicle with a steering gear box will break the sector shaft, resulting in NO STEERING. This will also make reversing the towed vehicle extremely difficult. SECONDLY: Use grade 8 bolts and locknuts on the safety chains. They can randomly come undone. In the event the ratchet strap buckles fail (and they slip as they wear out) this is your last hope in preventing a serious accident. LASTLY: Ensure the breakaway lever is actually attached under the tongue. Many times, this is simply a visual check by the rep.

I bleed everywhere and then he realized about pulling the dam fender flare out. I regret it daily after I see my small mark and how close it was to my eye and temple. It removed part of my eyebrow.

The whole point of using it it’s when the car doesn’t move. He didn’t show us how to get the car there

The real question is: who names their kid Sperry?
@BlackDomeJerome4 жыл бұрын
Someone who cant decide whether they like "Spencer" or "Terry", get the best of both world and enter your child into world of bullying and call him "Sperry"

I know this is a dumb question but should the car in tow be in neutral?
@davidstill7542 жыл бұрын
If you have a front wheel drive and the front wheels are on the dolly you could leave it in neutral but its less likely to roll if its in park and the strap got a little loose.

Never in neutral, and parking brake can never be engaged

What about disconnecting the drive train? When do you have to do that?
@alternative80spodcast78 Жыл бұрын
After securing the vehicle to the dolly. Obviously you cannot do it before.

but. What to do if the car is dead? How to load a dead car on the toll dolly?
@stevenmack99484 жыл бұрын
You could try pushing it on or use a winch or tow rope it on using another car.

Debating if I should get this or the 4 wheel tow ? Any suggestions? Will be diving from Alaska to Texas towing a Scion tC
@UhaulOfficialVideos8 жыл бұрын
Either one would work with the Scion TC, for longer distance I suggest the 4 wheel tow. ^MPM

When diving use scuba gear and maybe a snorkle.

A four wheel transport trailer is much easier to back up. I would definitely prefer a full transport.
