Jamie...
I used to rent trucks for Ryder Truck Rental and this was a strict no-no. So
IF you do it, don't tell the Penske or U Haul folks.
IF I were going to do it, I'd use 4x4 wheel chocks, toe nailed to the floor.
Most of the trucks should have a wooden floor. There should also be d-rings,
or wooden slats on the sides to tie down the load.
The danger is if you are involved in an accident...you have a rolling
projectile in the rear that will want to join you in the front seat. Why not
pull it behind the first truck. With no drive line we wont have the argument
as to if towing with the driveshaft in place is bad or not.
