DON'T DO IT! You'll destroy the tranny. You MUST remove the drive shaft.
The tranny is lubed by the motion of the input shaft, no turn of the input
shaft = no lube = destruction!

Subject: Towing a TR7 on a dolly
Hello all,
I know this subject has probably been kicked around a lot.
But, does it harm a 5 speed to tow it on a dolly with the rear wheels on the
ground? Trip 450 miles. I guess I could always put it on with the rear on
the dolly and the fronts on the ground.
I don't want to start a big thread, so a simple "no problem" or "don't
because..." will do.
Thanks,
Mike
