Backing up with a tow bar - The 1947 - Present Chevrolet & GMC Truck Message Board Network

**dmjlambert** · 10-02-2019, 08:24 PM

When I remove the engine from my truck, I would like to roll the truck out of the garage and power wash the engine bay. I have a list of things I want to do with the engine and the engine bay while the engine is out.

When it comes time to put the truck back into the garage, which is uphill, I was thinking of putting this tow bar on it and use my SUV to back the truck into the garage. I understand these trucks track fine when going forward. Should I expect it to be a different story and big trouble to back it up?

It is a 1969 CST/10 pickup with power steering and manual brakes.
