Re: Newbie Towing Question.
Just put the transfer in neutral, and the transmission in park.
Remember it won't back up because of it's steering geometry, have someone hold the steering wheel to get out of gas stations or whatever. I like to use a bungie cord to hold the steering wheel straight, as the Jeep will lock at full turn when going around a tight turn, some here likes to leave the key in, in the unlock position to allow the Jeep to follow, if you choose to, keep an eye on the it's wheels. The Uhaul type auxiliary lights are what my Son uses: http://members.aol.com/Larr------/lartruck.jpg I just splice in a plug connection after the turn signal to disconnect and plug in my pigtail.

Re: Newbie Towing Question.
A trick way of doing it, and I imagine you can get these at larger trailer
shops or RV accessory shops, is a box you wire into the YJ's harness that allows you to use the YJ's taillights when flat towing it. It has a 4-wire pigtail that coils up under the hood when not in use. I have one installed on my TJ but I can;'t remember the brand. "L.W.
