So i go outside this morning and low and behold my car is gone. Come to find out it was towed. Cuz i didnt have a pass for parking at my new place. So my question is i leave my e brake on and car in gear when i park. Also the tow company wont tell me if they used a flat bed. So what could i be looking at wrong when i go pick it up?

 

the center diff could be shot if it was towed without a flat bed.
I think someone might have posted the dangers a while back

 

Damn...that sucks. Just keep your fingers crossed that they used a flatbed. If not, your car could suffer some broken differentials.

 

well start by demanding they tell u how it got towed. threaten with lawyers etc...

 

threaten with a lawsuit and then they will tell you if they flatbedded or dollied the car

 

im leavein to get it when my ride gets here in like 20 min. the only problem with lawyers is i am miltary and i am pretty sure there is something about not being able to sue.

 

i hope dollied cuz like i said i leave it in gear and ebrake on

 

don't tell them that lol. remember threaten lol.

 

yea i know that

 

good luck.

 

You can't sue the government. But you can sue the tow company and/or the truck operator. But if you left in in gear thats a big problem cause either they had to open your can and take it out of gear or use the wind and put soap on the bed to slide your car onto it and it make a loud screeching sound. otherwise your trannys gonna have to break. Most likely they use a wrecker and screwed your center diff. The tow truck guys are as intelligent as a monkey and they don't bother dragging out the flat bed for a illegal parking tow for the cops.

 

i hope your diffs are not destroyed

 

what are some signs of a bad diff? sweet. well i guess since a shep trans and diff is cheaper than a stock i might be getting a new shep trans and diff thanx to the tow company. haha

 

Mods u can close this out. i got all the advice. Thanxs everyone and STM for the advice.

 

What ended up happening?
