Wheel Lift Equipment - The tow truck uses two pivoting arms that go under the tires (front or rear) and lifts them off the ground. The other two
wheels remain on the ground. Never tow the vehicle with wheel lift equipment.
Sling-type Equipment - The tow truck uses metal cables with hooks on the ends. These hooks go around parts of the frame or suspension, and the
cables lift that end of the vehicle off the ground. The vehicle's suspension and body can be seriously damaged if this method of towing is attempted. This
method of towing the vehicle is unacceptable.
The only recommended way of towing the vehicle is on a flat-bed tow truck.
