No one makes this car anymore. The government won't allow them, normal people won't buy them. So it's up to us: the freaks, the weirdos, the informed. To buy them, to appreciate them, and most importantly, to drive them. -
Yea, and since we all know E30s have perfect side to side rear alignments, do you really want the dolly to be moving all over the place while towing? A flatbed's like $10 more.Originally posted by downforce22 View Postneutral??Comment

Dude, grow a set, and tow the dang car on a dolly. Sheesh, I did it from MD to CO w/ my E30, and many times from Denver to Loveland, ALL RWD cars.
;)
disclaimer: that came out sounding a bit harsh, but I just be kidding... but srs, dolly works fine in my experience.Last edited by iamsam; 04-21-2011, 08:10 AM.Comment

Yep, we will U-haul if we have to. Just seeing if someone has something we can use.

You're supposed to disconnect the driveshaft to do it properly, but yeah, car hauler ftw.Originally posted by Bimmerman325i View Post

Am i missing something or can you back the car up on to the dolly so that the back wheels are on the dolly?89 325i (Sold)

That's not a safe solution. Probably not possibly with an E34 either.Originally posted by clarkkey594 View PostComment

not backwards, the car's front wheels can steer, and it will be hard to lock the steering w/ the front wheels perfectly straight.
But seriously, it is a non-issue. towing a RWD car on a dolly is 100% fine. Just put the car in neutral. I have done it many times, no issues. My E30 was towed for 3000 miles like that.
just go do it!
what the heck could possibly happen that wouldn't happen if you are coasting up to a red light in neutral or something?Comment

You're supposed to disconnect the drive-shaft so the transmission doesn't turn, but that's about it.Originally posted by iamcreepingdeath View PostComment
