Anyone have experience renting a tow dolly from Uhaul? For some reason I don't think they approve of using them with the small wheelbase of a MGB, am I right? It comes up as an approved method on the

Depends on how far you are pulling it. I've pull some things that I shouldn't have before. 15' boat with Grand Am and once with a Suzuki Samari. I remember not being able to stop in the Grand Am at a

Hello Dereck, You shouldn't have any problems hauling your 'B with U-Haul's dolly. I rented them a few times before buying a Tow-Rite dolly. I recommend using a safety chain or two from 'B to dolly i

Another option is to let the B follow along behind you with a tow bar. It was easy to remove the front bumper and attach the towbar to the front of my former 77B. The car tracked beautifully and it

How does the Dively Open Deck Car Trailer compare? You would be better off with a proper tandem axle car trailer and ramps. The loading ramp of the utility trailer probably will not work, so you wil

The downside of towing cross-country with all 4 wheels down is the debris that is thrown at the towed car by the towing vehicle, especially in constructio zones. If I did it again, I'd at least put a
