Vegas Teacher Posted January 7, 2018 Report Share Posted January 7, 2018 Hello I have a friend with a 2017 jeep wrangled 4 x 4. It has an automatic transmission. She is wondering if she will be able to flat tow it and not have to put it on a trailer behind her R.V. I told her I would post here and see if anybody knew about an automatic vs. Manual transmissions. I figured someone on here had an R.V. before they crossed over to the HDT. Thanks for your help.

I'mdonewiththis forum Posted January 7, 2018 Report Share Posted January 7, 2018 I think there is an oil pump on the output shaft of the transfer case. That allows oil to be pumped by spinning the driveshaft. Put the T-case in neutral and she should be good to go. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
noteven Posted January 7, 2018 Report Share Posted January 7, 2018 VT take a look see in the Jeeps owner manual. There may be instructions there specific to towing with wheels down. "Are we there yet?" asked no motorcycle rider, ever. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
docj Posted January 7, 2018 Report Share Posted January 7, 2018 I suggest your friend refer to page 325 of the 2017 Jeep Wrangler owner's manual, a copy of which is attached to this post. All Wrangler's can be towed 4-down by putting the transfer case into neutral. If he can't find his owner's manual, he can get another copy here: 2017 Jeep Wrangler owner's manual Sandie & Joel 2000 40' Beaver Patriot Thunder Princeton--425 HP/1550 ft-lbs CAT C-12 2014 Honda CR-V AWD EX-L with ReadyBrute tow bar/brake systemWiFiRanger Ambassador Follow our adventures on Facebook at Weiss Travels Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
