Crash1647545504 Posted April 20, 2005 Report Share Posted April 20, 2005 For what? Will you bring it back? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken_Wankel Posted April 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 I will be going on a journey to pick up an FD RX-7. The engine is fubar so I can't drive it. More than likly I'll beable to get down there next weekend to pick it up. As far as location, well, it's in Florida, but I'll make it a non-stop trip. Should be about a 32 hour drive to there and back. I'll bring it back ASAP. If you could help me out, that would sure be just dandy, and I would greatly appreciate it.

Buckeye1647545503 Posted April 21, 2005 Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 I have a dolly might rent out cheap if it will work Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Broken_Wankel Posted April 21, 2005 Author Report Share Posted April 21, 2005 The car is in Windermere, somewhat close to Orlando. As for the dolly, is that one of them front wheel only thingy-ma-jiggers. I would like to try and get a flat bed if possible first. Thanks anyway though.

Veritas Posted April 22, 2005 Report Share Posted April 22, 2005 well we just did this for my rx-7, and it's an FD. You can tow from the rear tires, just take the drive shaft off and you'll be fine. Easiest way to get at the drive shaft bolts once it's on a two wheel dolly ( and DONT tow the car with the front wheels on ground) is to just either inch the car forward, or backward while it's up on the dolley so you can have the drive shaft to rotate so you can get to each bolt. Also don't forget to remove the brace that's right up under neath it as you can't pull it free without doing that anyways. We drove all the way from here, to maryland, to virgnia, to north carolina and back home with a car being moved that way so you should be alright. Hollar at me if you have any questions about it.
