Al:  From experience:  I have towed my BJ8 on several long trips to Healey =
meets.  Disconnecting the drive shaft was recommended.  I never did.  I did=
 add a oil to the transmission to assure that it was full to the line on th=
e dip stick or a little over.  II you are towing with the top down and a to=
nneau cover installed, do not cover the steering wheel with the tonneau.  I=
t will prevent the steerng wheel and wheels from turning when going around =
corners.
