Front Drive Shaft Update

Is there a neutral position in the transmission for towing, or am I misunderstanding something right now?

You can’t tow using the neutral selected from inside the vehicle, the towing neutral is only accessible from outside underneath the vehicle so not suitable if under water or mud bound.

There are multiple ways to hit neutral. If the truck is operational then of course you can put trans in neutral. You also have the option of putting the at-case in neutral via the hi/low lever. It can be tricky on some trucks to find but it's there for sure. Then there is a lever under the truck on the side of the trans that if pulled and held in place will hold trans in neutral. And the final way is to turn a selector nut on the transfer case underneath the truck to lock it in neutral.

All are acceptable for short recovery or maintenance work, but only the selector underneath on the transfer case should be used for any towing at speed or considerable distance.
