Abstract
An improved dolly particularly suited for the secure transport of disabled vehicles in a repair shop is described. Specifically, the locations of both the points of contact with the vehicle and the points of contact with the ground may be configured independently from one another. This configurability allows the dolly to contact the vehicle in the most optimally secure locations, while also contacting the floor in the most convenient configuration so as to accommodate obstructions and irregularities in the floor.
