We are towing a 2002 Jeep Wrangler behind our RV. I know the steering wheel has to be left unlocked. 2010 and newer jeeps do not have a steering wheel locks so please answer this only if you have a 2000 - 2009 Jeep.
The manual says to turn the key to the OFF position which leaves the steering wheel unlocked.
Do you tow with the key in the ignition and in the OFF position? Seems like that is asking for someone to steal your Jeep?

I had the same problem. The simple solution is to have another key made. I turn that key to the first stop which unlocks the steering. Then I lock the doors as usual. I still have the original key on my key ring. I remove the spare key if I stop to go shopping or in a CG over night.
