I have done this more times that I would like to think about on all sorts of VWs (Jettas, Buses, Vanagons, Golfs, etc). We have it down to a science, but basically if you get a "come-along", you can attach it to either the tow vehicle or the front of the dolly itself, and pull the van up on the dolly this way. One person can do it alone, and the come along you need is only the small one that uses a cable that you could pick up at home depot for under $50. Be sure that the dolly is already hooked up to the tow car before you put the van on it. That is pretty much it. If you are towing a manual van, a two wheel tow dolly is fine. If you are towing an automatic you need to get a flat-tow trailer as you can ruin the auto tranny by towing it with the rear wheels on the ground. Hope this helps.
