Ok, I'll bite. Just why would it break your differential? I towed mine on
all four wheels on the ground from Seatle to Oakridge Tenn without problems
using a tow bar (no not attached to the bumper, heavens no!). Not a single
problem. Nor did I disconnect the drive shaft. It simply turns the tranny
gears and if in neutral just stirs the oil. But If I was going to go to the
expense of renting or borrowing a dolly, I would get a car transporter,
easier tow.
