I'm heading to Death Valley next month, and we were gonna tow the Jeep behind my dads motorhome. I bought and installed Currie Tow Shackles, and used his tow bar that he uses to tow his car.
We tested it today, towing it with his Tahoe. All seemed good. He u-turned at an intersection, and the Jeep wheels did not come out of the turn. I rode in the Jeep, and I could hear the tires scrub as he makes a turn, then the Jeep tires will turn. Then a little more scrubbing, and it'll drive straight. When going straight, I cannot hear any scrubbing by the tires.
I have never towed. Is this normal? As is, when I drive around a corner in the Jeep, the steering does not return to center on its own. Is there something that should be adjusted to make this work!?
Thanks in advance.
This is my CJ7 I'm towing, with 35" mud terrain tires.
