[W126 Coupe] towing

[Jonathan]

You'll run the trans, not the diff. 

Bring along some 19mm & 17mm open end box's (gear wrenches are nice 
here) and a 10 (possibly 8) mm hex, 17 and 19mm 6 pt socket on a 1/2 in 
drive w/ a breaker bar and you should be able to detach the drive 
shaft.  Oh, also bring a hammer and a large screwdriver..sometimes those 
flex discs don't won't to separate to readily.

Zip ties will hold the shaft up sufficiently.
