let me explain 2nd gear in the tow charge.
2nd locks the 5speed so it can spin, the rear shaft, so that not lubricated bearing there can be damaged.
they can't protect the rear bearing of the transfer case. so just tell you, 200miles, max, the do the steps in the book to lubricate it....
nor the front bearing,
one can make a case for both boxes in neutral, the above, is just one mans Idea of best. (long ago in Japan,,,may never have seen and RV like this ever,dig)
its not the best setup, for RV towing at all, mostly just for short runs,
the best setup if not liking drop axle and bailing wire it up. is REMCO.

the only other way is the addon lube system.
I dont think anyone stocks the Remco on a shelf now (its too old)
the prices when sold are $800 + , not cheap, some are more expensive that the car.
tow Dolley (the operators guide covers all ways here.) (you can tow forward and backwards, the backwards way saves the transmission.)
lube kits (drilling holes in the transfer case, to put on oil fittings)
remco , axle dis-connector.
or use N and drive slow. (test it first start engine shift to 1st hear/feel the transfer case slip.) Some cars have bad parts here, and can go to N or have trouble staying in ,"N"
or drop the rear axle at the pinion of rear pig and tie the rear up with bailing wire so the front slip yoke can NOT FALL OUT.
that be all ways, ive towed my jeep backwards, for 1000miles once. it does work. and zero damage, drove it 250,000 more miles. 5sp 4wd.
