Has anyone used these dollys for towing a cossie (probably with front bumper removed)?
Quite interested in this topic. And how effective they are. Does the car steer OK to follow the front car.

KINDY - sorry for hijacking your thread

I dont know about a cossie but a mate of mine used a dolly for his corsa.
Suppose its around the same,

I would advise the bumper removed of course, and then Hook it up to your main toeing and strong points of the front of the cossie your toeing,

Once attached, its like a trallor,


REMEMBER! hand brake off, KEYS IN!..

wont jack Knife then

Like i say, if you have first hand of a trallor, this would be no different.

Was out with the gf earlier, sitting in traffic, and she pipes up that the car next to us is moving with no driver in it. She hadn't clocked the car in front of it with an A frame on
