No, No, NO you can't pull a vehicle backward. It is totally impossible to pull a car on a two wheeler with the front on the ground. Number one, the front end is heavy and acts like a pendulum, once it starts swagging you will be in the ditch upside down before it stops. Only, only, only front wheels on the dolly, get two wrenches and if you are young and strong you could have that drive line disconnected at the rear flex joint in 15 minutes. Be sure to tie your front wheels really tight on the carrier or it will begin "walking on you". They are risky to use, but follow directions and use good common sense and you can get it done.
