Four-Wheel-Drive Vehicles

Use the following procedure to tow your vehicle
from the rear:

1. Drive the vehicle onto the dolly.
2. Firmly set the parking brake. See Parking

Brake on page 130 for more information.

3. Put an automatic transmission in PARK (P)

or a manual transmission in FIRST (1).

4. Follow the dolly manufacturer’s instructions

to attach and secure the vehicle being towed
to the dolly and then the loaded dolly to
the tow vehicle.

For manual transmission vehicles, make sure
the wheels are straight before proceeding
to the next steps. On automatic transmission
vehicles, use an adequate clamping device
to ensure that the front wheels are locked into
the straight position.

CAUTION:

Shifting a four-wheel-drive vehicle’s
transfer case into NEUTRAL can cause
your vehicle to roll even if the
transmission is in PARK (P) for an
automatic transmission, or if your vehicle
is in gear, for a manual transmission.
You or others could be injured. Make sure
the parking brake is firmly set before you
shift the transfer case to NEUTRAL.

5. Shift the transfer case to NEUTRAL. See

Four-Wheel Drive on page 126 for more
information.

6. Release the parking brake only after the

vehicle being towed is firmly attached to the
tow vehicle.
