Any suggestions on towing a car that is missing a passengers side front wheel? The suspension is broken so no chance of putting a wheel on it. Could flat bed it but it would be stupid expensive. Uhaul dolley, trailer? Any ideas? Need to tow about 10 miles. ---

10 miles won’t be too much $ for a flat bed. Call a few companies and get some rates. ---

UHaul dolly would work. You would just have to be careful as the car would be riding right on the frame. ---

If you do try to drag it onto a dolly use multiple pieces of wood under the frame and then dump some dish soap on it to make them slide easily. Trick I learned watching the tow truck slide my old Fiero onto the flatbed after I snapped a lower ball joint autocrossing. ---

^ Yep. Definitely get some solid wood blocks ( from where, idk ) to support the front passenger chassis.
