Re: [T2] Bug motor into Bus

2002-01-18 Thread Bill Monk

..I went with someone to tow a 69 bus once without a engine and had the
same problem. We ended up using some rope tied around the tranny to a  sign
pole wedged and tied up in the engine compartment.  This worked from Upstate
NewYork To the CT
/RI border shoreline. I just kept on thinking "it's not my bus".

Or you can make one of these out of some chain, 2X4's and eye bolts.

It takes twenty to thirty minutes (if the CV bolt gods are smiling on you
this day) to remove the transmission and stick it in the cargo area.
