How to Tow a 1999 Chevy Blazer 4 Wheel Drive
If you need to tow your vehicle for recreational purposes behind a motor home then it is important for you to tow the vehicle properly. General Motors advises the use of a tow dolly when transporting the 1999 Chevy Blazer four-wheel drive vehicle behind a motor home. The tow dolly allows the vehicle's front two tires to remain off the ground during the tow. Towing a four-wheel drive vehicle without a tow dolly can cause damage to the powertrain.
