Hey guys/gals...what's the scoop on Flat towing a car/jeep behind a RV as far as concerning the driveshafts...specifically referring to Hauling my Jeep flat tow behind a RV. I can't help to think every time I see an RV towing a suv/truck do they really all pull their driveshafts or what..
Q1: With my Jeep flat towing 1hr trip would i need to pull driveshafts or just N and N for drivetrain
Q2: If needed pulled, with locking hubs in front could the front driveshaft stay connected
Q3: does steering wheel stay locked or unlocked when flat towing or is is a "preference"
I'm all new to this and a friend is giving me a 79 Fleetwood Sounthwind 26' RV with 40k miles, 454 dually rear, air suspension along with regular leafs, all the gizmos and gadgets the 79 had to offer so looks like a new Family Camper and Tow Rig for me. He tells me the RV has towing capacity of 7500lb but I really don't want to haul the jeep on the trailer so looking into getting stock tires for it and flat towing seems to be lot less stress and weight on it. Any and all help is greatly appreciated...I'm getting it in a week or so and will get some pictures up. Thanks
