That actually makes awesome sense. Jeesch, we just talked in the thread about gladiator theft about how that works, stupido meNext time, you could try leaving it in Park and put the Transfer Case in Neutral.
I did the exact same thing, too funny. BUT, i found that I put it in neutral (auto of course) then back into drive or reverse and it goes...at least on my '22 WillysPROBLEM SOLVED = $9 FIX (1 PAIR)
Maybe so, but the proper use of them saves a lot of lives and reduces bodily injury. I never used them until college when I started riding with my girlfriend. Now I always use one, even just across the parking lot.seat belt laws are gubment overreach

Would this be even safer? Need to check the JT handbook manual if it is the same for our JT.That actually makes awesome sense. Jeesch, we just talked in the thread about gladiator theft about how that works, stupido me
With the Gladiator, it cannot be shifted out of Park (without using the emergency release) unless the engine is running. The engine cannot be shutdown unless it is in Park.Would this be even safer? Need to check the JT handbook manual if it is the same for our JT.

How to Flat Tow a Jeep Wrangler Behind an RV
On a flat surface with the parking brake on or using a wheel chock get into your Jeep Wrangler and take the following steps to flat tow your Jeep.
1. Put the key in the ignition and move it to the accessory position.
2. Step on the brake pedal and shift the transmission into Neutral (N), or if you have a manual Jeep depress the clutch and brake pedal and shift into Neutral.
3. Shift the transfer case into Neutral (this is the lever you use to shift from 2 to 4 wheel drive)
4. Start the engine.
5. Shift into drive on an automatic or put the manual transmission into gear (most people recommend 2nd or 3rd gear)
6. Let off of the brake pedal make sure that the vehicle does not move.
7. Shut the engine off and leave the key in the unlocked off position.
8. Shift the automatic transmission into Park (P)
9. Hook the Jeep up to the tow vehicle and check lights and safety chain functionality.
10. Release the parking brake.
Special Considerations:
Do not shift an automatic transmission into park with the transfer case in neutral with your engine running, doing so could cause transmission issues.
Very cool. Thank you. I will re-consult and RTFM again. They want the engine running anyway, water, electronics and such.With the Gladiator, it cannot be shifted out of Park (without using the emergency release) unless the engine is running. The engine cannot be shutdown unless it is in Park.
Yup. Just one more reason I moved to New Hampshire. Only state in the country that does not have a seat belt law for adults. I still wear one every time. My choice.seat belt laws are gubment overreach
Having picked up, scraped up and mopped up a few people who felt likewise, seatbelts do in fact save lives.seat belt laws are gubment overreach
