When using wheel-lift equipmen1
towing over rough surfaces can
damage a vehicle.
To help avoid
this, install a towing dolly beneath
the wheels that would otherwise be
on the ground during the tow. This
will increase clearance between the wheel-lift equipment and
the
underbody of the towed vehicle.

used or
how many miles it’s been driven.
It could fail suddenly and cause an

wheel use a new GM original
equipment wheel.
