Towing a car with a bobtail (semi) truck?

The mobile home toters seem to have that all figured out.

 

I mounted a receiver on the back crossmember and pulled a tow dolly.

 

There's a thread in the classifieds for a 4 wheeler with all the attachments to tow it with a tractor. Download the photos and make a facsimile?

I initially clicked to find out what a 'toad' car was....

 

This is what I use.

Around here they just slap and weld ramps on the back frame around 5th wheel and chain the car to that.

I have no idea how they get them things up there long enough to chain them. Its amazing.

Once in a while I see a pintle welded on and they use a A bar to the front tow hooks of the vehicle. It has no choice but to shimmy along. Imagine the damage that will do over time.

I don't do delicate items like cars. I usually push them along.

 

$73 at Tractor supply. bolted to the rear cross member (where some bobtails have their tail lights.) hooked up a regular 4 pin pig tail for lights & i drag my car all over the place on a car dolly. I’ also used to haul boats on boat trailers. You got it, mine as well make some money with it.

 

Dang and here I was going to put a pintle eye on my boat trailer so I don't have to mess around changing my hard tail!
