Generally speaking, if the transfer case has a neutral position, it's towable 4 down. Does the 2002 4x4 have a neutral position on the manual transfer case lever or dash-mounted selector switch?

That is exactly right!
I have an 02 Nissan Frontier automatic and it has neutral in the transfer case. I just came back from a trip of 800 mi towing it all 4s down with no problem even though the manual says not to. BTW there have been several others who have done this and that is where I got the idea.

Good luck!
