Yep I am well onto the path to towing the car. All ready got a nice tow bar, have installed receivers onto the car, got a brake buddy to stop the car while towing.
Just need to fab brackets for the front of the bumper to hook the tow bar to.
That's the last piece of the puzzle.

Then I came across an old post here stating that if the trans is in neutral the drive gears are not turning so no oiling will happen to parts of the trans.
That is what has prompted this thread.

So that is the focus here, will the 911 trans be well lubricated if towed for long distances.

Angela, you are right in your last comment about driving in tandem , but I am solo now so want to do it myself.
And the hitch might require some beefing up to tow more weight, and the engine too for that extra 1,500 pounds. It's slow enough all ready climbing mountains .

Sorry if my response to Nota and JJ 911 was a bit tart. I do appreciate the input, it was just a little off target.


Cheers Richard
