Frequently Asked Questions
Is a Stand-Up dolly really close to flat towing? Yes. The fixed pan works with your vehicle’s unlocked steering so car + dolly track together naturally through turns.
Can I tow low-profile cars? Yes. Low deck heights and 12" E-rated tires help improve approach angle for low/wide vehicles.
What capacity do I need? Many of our dollies are engineered for up to 4,900–5,000 lb vehicle curb weight. Always observe your tow-vehicle ratings and state laws.
Disc vs. Idler (no brakes)? Choose surge/electric braking for grades and heavy routes; choose idler where permitted and when lighter weight/cost is preferred.
Do you provide paperwork? Yes—MCO title and invoice with every purchase.
