Default Re: Towing with a wheel dolly...

The input shaft on a manual trans turns the countershaft which acts as a oil pump to lubricate everything. When flat towing the rear wheels turn the out put shaft and doesnt turn the countershaft so the out put shaft bearings and free wheeling gears are not being lubricated, not sure about automatics probably the same
