    When Travelin2 sold his VX, he sold me the components that he installed so the 2 threads mentioned by Ldub are what my setup will be.

    And just another FYI, IIRC, you can NOT use a tow dolly on the front or rear wheels either, forward or backwards....flat bed is the only way without modifying as mentioned.
    Almost.

    If you install the lock-out hubs (less than $100), you can dolly it from the rear.

    BTW, with the driveshaft disconnect, the mileage won't register on the ODO.

    Put a smiley after you say that Bub.

    Remember that life is not measured in the breaths you take, but rather in the moments that take your breath away.

    Yes Dear.

    How-some-ever, ifn you were to ask yer technoid hubby I'm sure he would back me on the fact that due to the cost, labor, & reverse installation (to revert to stock configuration) involved, adding front lockout hubs does not fall within the true definition of 'modification'. Would you consider adding a cupholder a 'modification'???

    WOO-WOO-WOO!!! Dawgs rule ... & Cats drool. Score one for the technoids.

    The scarey part is that I don't do coffee at all. I'm strung out on Iced Tea (0500-0800) & Mountain Dew (0800-1600). There's a reason for the set schedule but you don't wanna know.
