Is it fine to trailer/tow with a tow bar a 1984 cj7 w/dana 300?
Hi-Ya, GaryMB, Your question is frequently asked. Unfortunately, the answers given frequently differ. The best I can do for you is to give you the text verbatim — from the 1985 CJ-7 (1985 also used the Dana 300 T-Case) Owners Manual. Here it is, from pages 131 132: Towing Disabled Vehicle If your vehicle is disabled and must be towed with the front or rear wheels off the ground, towing speed should be limited to 30 mph (48 km/h) for a distance no greater than 15 miles (24 km). Towing Cautions If the vehicle must be towed with the front wheels on the ground, the ignition key must be turned to the OFF position to unlock the steering column. The steering column lock is not strong enough to withstand shock transmitted from the front wheels while towing. Also, before towing the vehicle with the rear wheels lifted, secure the steering column with a steering wheel clamping device designed for towing service. If either propeller shaft has been removed and installed, check the transmission flu
