flatbed a 57 Dodge automatiic

57RID500 Posted 2019-03-10 2:05 PM (#579124) Subject: flatbed a 57 Dodge automatiic Regular Posts: 85 I have a 57 Dodge D500 with a factory 3 speed auto transmission. I have to have it flatbed to a mechanic. Should I put the hand brake on while its in transit on the flatbed? Hopefully, it wont damage the transmission? thanks Bob 57chizler Posted 2019-03-10 5:43 PM (#579128 - in reply to #579124) Subject: RE: flatbed a 57 Dodge automatiic Expert Posts: 3774 Location: NorCal Hand brake is optional if the car is well tied down to the bed.
