    Can't you just select neutral on the hi-lo shift - this should stop the gear box turning -

    There isn't one, plus that's just for the transfer case. You still have to contend with the automatic which is a big tow no-no.

    Towing your VehiCROSS...

    Just grab about 10 feet of chain from any hardware store, loop it through the front cladding, and fasten it to the rear of your RV. You are now ready to drag your VX wherever you wish!
    The only thing we have to fear is fear itself... and zombies.

    To SAFELY tow your VX...

    Put it on a trailer to get all 4 wheels off the road.

    Hi - i have a neutral on mine - the section in between hi and lo = no drive - if the transfer case doesn't turn then the gear box shouldn't - or are the autos different?
    cheers

    Your transfer case drives the front axle from the transmission (either manual or auto) whereas the rear axle is driven by the transmission, so in the case of the auto the rear axle would need to be disconnected but I believe there isn't a neutral position in the TOD transfer case.

    When you recover from the sticker shock of the featherlites you might think about buying mine. I've towed it a total of about 200 mi. All C channel construction and automotive quality paint. Bought it 2 months ago. Paid $2,450 will sell for $1980.

    That's a lot cheaper than steak and think what ya have left after a steak. At least this way you'd still have a trailer. (a nice lookin trailer I might add )
    So I said to myself, I said "Handee"
    and this voice came back and said..
    "He's not in, may we take a message?"

    Oh, I'm just funnin'! I've got plenty of steel trailers from 8 ft. up to 50 ft. and would rather pull aluminum any day of the week. Yup, they're pricey but you get back some of that expense with every mile they follow you somewhere. It costs fuel and drivetrain abuse to haul unnecessary weight and extra brake wear to stop it, so the more you lighten the load the less the load lightens your wallet!
