<< Which is the easiest and/or best way to tow a Westy for a 200 or so mile trip, flat tow or on a dolly? I've yet to tow one, and will be doing so next weekend. Thanks for any tips. >> use a tow dolly.. is it a 4spd, non-syncro? if so, and the tranny is full of gear oil, then just throw it in neutral and it will be ok for 200 miles on a 2 wheel tow dolly. if its an auto, i would remove the driveshafts, or tow it backwards and lock the strg wheel. chris
