Silverado 1500 2WD V6-4.3L (2007)
Dinghy towing is permitted on the trucks shown with the transfer case placed in the Neutral position. Refer to the end of this bulletin for
identification information to determine type of transfer case.
The vehicles shown should NOT be dinghy towed because the transfer cases in these vehicles either have no neutral position or do not have an
internal oil pump to provide lubrication while being towed. In order to properly tow the vehicles, place the vehicle on a platform trailer with all
four tires off the ground. Avoid towing the vehicle with all four tires on the ground. In rare instances when towing with all four tires on the ground
is unavoidable, both the front and the rear propeller shafts must be removed in order to prevent damage to the transfer case and/or transmission.
Because front and rear propeller shafts are matched to attaching components at assembly, refer to the applicable Service Manual for procedures on
propeller shaft removal/installation.
Towing Procedure
In order to properly dinghy tow the vehicle, use the following procedure:
1.
Firmly set the parking brake.
