    I used the exact tow bar found at northern tools.... http://www.northerntool.com/webapp/wcs/stores/servlet/product_6970_200314983_200314983

    Using heavy duty pins it connects to "tow shackles"..... It works great with one issue. The steering linkage in my jeep gives me problems.... When I making turns my front wheels want to stay straight and it causes the front wheels to "drag" instead of turn. I am afraid that it may be putting too much force on the knuckles and other mechanics.

    But as far as straight towing... works like a champ. :)

    .....Zombie Thread....

    Guys...please...if the thread you're looking at is over a year old start a new one. It's really confusing to have these old ones come back to life.

    Then I would recommend locking threads that are older than 'x' Months.... most forums provide the ability to lock threads so they can still be read but not added to....

    IMO

    Shows you are paying attention, and just not skimming through.
