Slap that puppy in neutral and go. 1995 Jeeps, assuming they're 4WD, only need to be put in neutral. Taking off the drive shaft is only to get you dirty, and make you manly looking cuz you own a Jeep. It's recommended you don't shave for three days prior to leaving. :)......Dennis

Yes, if he removes the rear drive shaft the Jeep can be towed with the front wheels on a dolly with no problems. The transfer case does not have to be in Neutral, the transmission does not have to be in gear.
Seems to me, though, that considering the fact that a 5000 lb. capacity towbar is available from Walmart for less than $175, (that is what I use) or from Harbor Freight for less than $100, and magnetic tow lights are available from the same sources for $20 to $50, and a Jeep can be towed 4 down with no problems (read and follow the instructions in the Owner's Manual), it doesn't make sense to use a dolly.
But, again, it can be done with the rear driveshaft removed

He must look at owner's manual.
The normal item to be in neutral is the transfer case. Then the transmission in gear.

Flat towing Jeep

If in doubt use a trailer.

Think he’s gonna just pull the rear drive shaft to be safe.

the remco page only has info on 1996 and newer vehicles. if i were him i would..

- check the owner's manual
- call Jeep...not a dealer but the mfg
- contact Remco by phone.

i wouldn't gamble. without a direct answer i would not proceed.
