has anyone transported their stock suspension frs on a uhaul car transport or the 2 wheel tow dolly/

I dont want to go rent it just to not able to put it in? I have another car that is low, and i always have to remove front bumper....

the manual says dont do the dingy tow so it says use a full trailer if you need to transport it

^^^^ Exactly! Do NOT use the two-wheel trailer (dinghy) towing method. That is only safe with FWD vehicles. If you need to tow it, put it on a flatbed of some sort.

I read the U-Haul manual for the two wheel trailer. It says you can pull a RWD car, but you have to disconnect the drive shaft.

Best go with the full trailer, but it weighs a lot more. Wanted to pull my car with a van but the 4 wheel trailer + car went over my towing capacity.

Full trailer is only 10 bucks more....save the hassle and do it right...use boards if you have clearance issues.

Ive put mine on my trailer which sits higher than a uhaul trailer and i did just fine if anything find a couple boards for extra ramp clearance but you should be fine.

I put mine right on a UHaul Trailer after I got it to get it home. Front bumper is a close fit on clearance but it just makes it.

I am dropped on Tein S tech springs and i needed boards to get the bumper over that front metal part and the sides were super close too.

Stock height you will be perfectly fine, shouldnt need boards to get up or to get over the bar. I drove it accross the country from WI to AZ.

Don't use Uhaul ever. Period. Do some research on their crash/death rates. Especially with their trailers. They are the only rental company that will rent trailers to tow behind normal everyday cars. The other companies won't do it. There, rant over.
