Wrangler towing

On a standard shift Wrangler 2023 the book says transfer case in neutral but transmission gear. Any thoughts??

You mean "in gear"? Yes, manuals should be put in gear. Top gear, I believe.

sounds like this might be too late but if you were ever going to upgrade your bumper now would have been a great time Rock Hard Industries has optional clevis receivers for all the major tow bars that bolt onto the bumber and thru the frame

I have a '14 Wrangler that I tow. Just in case you didn't realize it, one of the great things about towing a Jeep is that once you've gone through the steps with dis-engaging the transmission, you can take the key out of the ignition and lock the doors if you want to.


Early on, I didn't realize this, and I was going through the extra step of disconnecting the battery. Turns out this isn't necessary since you can just take the key out and the steering won't lock up.

Yep, that was the same for our '97 GC.
