Flat towing with my wagon.

Wanting to flat tow a fwd manual wagon about 275 miles with a 5,000lb Universal tow bar. Thinking I will bolt the mounting brackets to a spare front metal bumper and pull the plastic bumper cover on the car and swap out the metal bumpers. Any reason why this won’t work? It will be 275 miles on flat pretty much flat ground the whole way from northwest Indiana to Souteast Indiana interstate 65 the whole way.

I'd use a tow-dolly and just haul it behind the car on the empty leg.

^^ this is the best choice ^^ I second the vote for the use of a tow dolly...

I see no reason why it wouldn't work. I have towed vehicles long distances like that. What would you do for lights?
