    Back in the day when cars and trucks had steel chrome bumpers, we had a piece of pipe about 3" round and 6' long. In the middle was a hunk of chain with about 2' sticking out of each end with a hook. If we were towing a vehicle we would put the pipe in between the two vehicles and take the chain and wrap it around the chrome bumper and lash it tight. Put one person in the vehicle to steer and the pipe would help do the braking if you kept it centered between the two vehicles. That way you did not have to worry about no good brakes or hitting the tow vehicle in the a$$.
