I'm taking my next step into the Vanagon addiction. I just recently bought a 1987 GL for parts. It's a complete van, and to be honest, it's in pretty good shape. Now I just need to get it home. It's about 2 hours South of Indy. It has been setting for about 1.5 to 2 years. I own tow dolly. I'm just wondering which end should go on the dolly, front or rear. It's an automatic with a good transmission. I'm also wondering which end is lighter, front or back. I'd rather put the lighter end on the dolly, but is this the best way to two. Mainly I've towed lighter front wheel drive cars around town, so the drive wheels never touched the ground. This time it will be a 4000lb van and I don't want to mess up a good transmission. Any suggestion on the best way to tow would be appreciated. -Mark K
