Again, I have plans to attend the VTR convention in Dallas and have a towing question. In the past, I have used a U-Haul auto transpost, which is designed for carrying a car. It has front chocks to roll the front wheels against and a sling to lock down the front tires, with chains for the rear. I used to just roll the car on, lock down and go. Now, because my car has been lowered and has custom, lowriding exhausts, I can no longer fit on the U-Haul. My friend to the rescue. I have access to a really decent tilt trailer that has (or will have) all the necessary lock downs but no chocks. I am rigging a set of loose chocks for the wheels but not affixed to the trailer. The question I have is should the car be locked in gear (1st?) with the emergency brake on or leave it free wheeling? This may sound trivial but somehow I feel that leaving it in neutral might be a better idea, putting less stress on the drive train. There will be no way the car will come off the trailer (save an accident!) and will be chained and strapped down rather tightly. So, what do ya'll think?
