Hi all, I have a problem in getting my car home. I am currently at a microcar rally 80 miles from home, I was out on a run today (Friday) and managed to jam my gearbox in gear (3rd I think) lever moves as normal but gear refuses to disengage, obviously selector problem. My problem is that I 'A' framed it here and at present it won't freewheel without clutch in. Do the members think that if I unbolted the drive shaft couplings from the hubs and tied them out of way, the rear wheel bearings would be OK to tow the car home, thanks in advance, Eric

Hi, :)
I would try putting it on in reverse. so it's the FRONT wheels rotating,
will the steering LOCK at all..??

Thanks all for the reassurance, just wasn't sure how much support the shafts gave to the bearings, shafts to be disconnected today and tow home tomorrow, carefully. There won't be any weight in the car anyway.
