Towing your vehicle behind a motor home has now become very common and most motor home owners report that towing a car has little or no effect on handling and mileage. Yet many questions remain about towing with all four wheels on the ground verses using a 2 wheel dolly. Owners agree that towing with four wheels down -

Remco's are the most convenient and easy way to tow your car, truck, or van on all four wheels. Whether it's large or small, front or rear wheel drive. Remco has what you need to tow it behind your motor home. Tow it the easy way, on all four wheels. More convenience and less risk than other systems. We offer disconnects in two different configurations:
Concerned about accumulating mileage on the towed vehicle (toad) when towing. There is, of coarse, no mileage accumulation with the driveline disconnect or the axle lock systems. These two products disengage the drive train for towing and the vehicle is towed with the transmission in Park. This means there is no rotational movement in the transmission. The speedometer drive gears are not turning. Now that electronic speedometers have replaced the old cable-driven units, logging mileage is a thing of the past, even with the lube-pump kits. The only exceptions are vehicles with the sensors on the front or rear wheels and the 1996 and newer Chrysler mini-vans.
Prevents automatic transmission damage to your rear axle
drive vehicle. When you tow your rear axle drive car, van or pickup, 
the drive
shaft to the rear axle must be disconnected to prevent damage to the automatic transmission.
This requires mechanical service under the car which is not convenient for RV towing.
Remco's Drive Shaft Couplings was developed to provide a quick and easy means of
disconnecting the transmission while sitting in the driver's seat. The coupling (mechanical
clutch) is installed into the rear portion of the car's drive shaft, near the rear
axle.
When disconnected the rear axle is free to turn without turning the drive shaft or
transmission. The coupling has a control 
cable attached to it which extends
to a location under the driver's seat. This control is pulled out to disengage for
towing and pushed into engage for driving the vehicle.
call order the unit with a small deposit, remove your existing
driveline and send it to us via UPS. We will modify your existing shaft and UPS it
back to you prepaid you complete installation of the modified drive shaft and install
control cable.
Disconnects the automatic transmission for towing a front wheel drive vehicle. The Axle-Lock is a mechanical disconnect built into the vehicle's front drive axle. A single Axle-Lock is installed into the right front axle (passenger side). When the Axle-Lock is placed into a disengaged position, the transmission will not turn and the speedometer will not register mileage.
To understand the principle of the transmission disconnect,
where only one axle is disconnected, you should understand the built in effect of
a differential. It is commonly known that with both drive wheels off the ground,
and the transmission in "park" position, when one wheel is turned forward,
the other wheel freely turns in the opposite direction. With the Axle-Lock in the
disengaged position, the left wheel can turn forward while a portion of the right
axle connected to the Axle-Lock turns freely in the opposite direction. 
The right
wheel also turns freely with its axle disconnected at the Axle-Lock.
This same principle used in the Axle-Lock, is used by several US and foreign manufactures of 4 wheel drive vehicles to disconnect the extra axle. Disengaging and engaging is accomplished by reaching around the front tire, and rotating the Axle-Lock housing one-third turn; clockwise to engage, and counter-clockwise to disengage. Steering the front wheels to the far right, allows easy access to the Axle-Lock.
Remco's Lube Pump
When your vehicle with an automatic transmission is driven, the transmission is lubricated by an engine-driven transmission fluid pump. When the vehicle is towed, this engine-driven pump does not operate. Another means of lubrication is needed. REMCO'S Lube Pump was developed to provide a reliable lubrication system for the transmission while it is being towed. To tow your vehicle, connect the cable and turn on the switch on the monitor in the motorhome and you are ready to go.
