Towing a H2
Can you tow H2 and put the transmission in neutral and the transfer case also! I'm in N.C. and just purchased a Kodiac truck and need to bring my baby back to Ca. U-Haul said it was to heavy to put on there trailer! Da! Oh well any ideas?

Re: Towing a H2
push the button with the 4 and the arrow pointing up and the button with the 4 and the arrow pointing down at the same time. hold them in for about 5 seconds and a red light will come on indicating that the tranny is in neutral. Make sure you are either hooked up to the towing vehicle or the parking brake is on BEFORE you do this or the truck will roll away or into something......

Re: Towing a H2

little bit of overkill, but no sense in taking chances....

Re: Towing a H2
I am getting a Roadmaster towbar with the rv, but need to get all the brackets for the H2. I have a slightly dinged Warn bumper and winch setup. Should be interesting to see about getting those on.
Going to the Hershey show next month. Maybe I can get a deal.
