Abstract: A vehicle towing mechanism adapted to be utilized in conjunction with a truck for towing a wheeled vehicle. The towing mechanism includes an elongate main support member which is pivotally connected to the truck and extends rearwardly therefrom. The main support member has vertical, spaced side walls formed of a prestressed high tensile metal and is constructed to have an upwardly bowed configuration; such configuration is retained by an upper wall fixedly attached thereto. A vertical riser member is adapted to be vertically slidable relative to the truck rear end and is connected to the main support member to inhibit lateral movement. The main support member is connected to an apparatus which supports laterally spaced wheels of the vehicle and includes wheel-engaging devices for each wheel. Each device has a rotating section and a fixed section. Wheel retainers are adapted to secure the wheels within respective devices and securely lock the wheel-supporting apparatus in a selectively fixed position.
