I’m in the nova, no brakes, no motor, it’s midnight and my buddy stops at a red light(no traffic), he’s got my stereo cranked up and can’t hear anything else as I’m screaming GO GO GO………..KaBLAM right into the the back of my el camino! Luckily no damage to either of MY cars…….we still laugh at that today!

Most towing I've seen in the UK they use solid tow bars so only steering is required. Usually a fold up one that fits in the van, a ratchet strap holds it straight, also means the towed vehicle is only about 4' or 5' behind.

With the biased weight being on the end of the towed vehicle (it was w-a-y heavier than the Taco) I believe a solid tow bar would have simply pushed the little Tacoma's rear end passed it's front end when attempting to slow/ stop.

I used some emery cloth to smooth it out. About 390 miles later we made it. Talk about sketchy!

However, using a pipe would mean you're either going to bend the pipe with that much weight behind it or you're going to turn the pipe into a lance. Seems like if He had just had the transmission in third or fourth and kept the clutch in he could quickly engage it if he needed to slow. I also would never have taken my hand off that emergency brake the whole time.

@randallsmerna384 2 жыл бұрын

And to be quite honest I would have just had it towed because: 1) Towing it that way is illegal. 2) You put people's lives at risk. Something could have gone wrong and you could have pushed him into an intersection or pulled him off the road if things went awry with the big truck. 3) Much better time management. 4) Would have avoided having to do the repair which saves time and money. I bet that repair is going to cost WAY MORE then what a tow bill would have been... It's the same concept behind "You only drive with an unsecured load once". IDK, I just don't like unnecessary damage and expense.

I had a 99 Siverado that sat for 3 years before I bought it and fixed it up. It had bias 38.5 super swampers on it and it was the same way. It would shake your guts out until you got above 40 then it was smooth sailing. Tough break on the radiator though. I'm sure you'll get it fixed up though or should I say Randall will get it fixed up LoL.

A long time ago there were some abandoned railroad tracks that made for a much shorter drive into town than the highway. Much like Paul’s “square tires” the sleepers, or railroad ties would shake out your fillings at slow speed. But, once you got up to 40 or 50 it was a real smooth ride. It was even better on my dirt bike!

If nothing else, try using a piece of pipe, with a chain thru it. Wire the hooks so it can't come loose and take up all the slop you can. It keeps the cars apart and lets them turn. Or at least tell Randal to stop panic braking... Need to work on that part Randal.

That's the only way to tow something with out brakes. I would v pipe it for a little better control.
