Towing a Ram 3500 manual ?

I'm wondering if it's possible to tow a large pickup, Dodge 3500, with a pop-up truck camper mounted, 4-down, behind a motorhome, or a bobtail tractor? Would modifications be necessary for the pickup, such as a drive shaft disconnect? Would the ignition have to be on to release the wheel. Anyone out there actually doing this?

    I don’t know about the older Dodges but the current generation Rams can be flat towed. Leave trans in park and push a dash button to put transfer case in neutral. Obviously you’ll need a tow bar, brake system and lights, and a moho big enough to handle the weight.
