Original poster has not been back but for future reference, transfer box neutral saves drag but also means rear mainshaft bearing will run dry after a while, so would not recommend towing for more than 50 miles without putting transfer box into gear for a couple of miles to re lube the rear mainshaft, if say towing on a dolly (front wheels off the ground) for many miles I would recommend unbolting the prop and securing it out of the way, you cannot remove it without oil loss on to the road, Rick
