Towing question - PLEASE, QUICK ANSWER!

PLEASE respond ASAP someone

My Max is being totalled more on that in a later post...

As soon as someone can see and answer this, I really need to know if our cars can be towed by the front end without the strut towers installed. My AGX/B&G combos are coming out of the car one way or another, but it would take me way longer plus the use of a spring compressor if I'm going to build them strut towers out of the original struts/springs.

What I want to do is pull out my strut towers, re-build the original rear suspension and install (since the rear will contact the ground when towing), then throw all the parts for the front suspension in the trunk, leaving the control arms dangling or whatever up there. Would this work?

Oh yeah, the passenger CV boot is busted wide-open, if that makes a difference.

Thanks you guys!

Most tow truck grab the wheels, so if you didn't have strut towers, that would be a problem. They may lift the car by the tow hooks, but I doubt it.
