To prepare a disabled vehicle for
front end towing with all wheels on
the ground, the following steps are
necessary:
.Block the rear wheels of the
disabled vehicle.
. Disconnect the driveshaft at the
rear axle. Secure the driveshaft
to the frame or crossmember.
When towing, disconnect the
driveshaft at the rear axle to ensure
the transmission is not damaged.
The rear end of the driveshaft must
be disconnected and safely secured

towing chains and bar from coming
into contact with the bumper.
If there is damage or suspected
damage to the rear axle, remove the
axle shafts.
Cover the hub openings to prevent
the loss of lubricant or entry of dirt
or foreign objects.
