tow bar folly

I just used a tow bar to move my truck from utah to Florida. I don't recommend it. I removed to front bumper and bolted to tow bar to the frame where the bumper mounts. I fabricated a spreader bar to make the thing a little more rigid because it kept bending the ears on my frame. The thing finally broke out of the frame and came loose, ruined my outer grill., and now i have to have my frame welded back together. For 250 miles it might not be a bad thing, but anything longer and I would suggest one of the other methods. Just my .02.
