My understanding is that this is something you do not want to do unless you disconnect the prop shaft. The reasoning is that the oil is circulated through the tranny by the rotation of the input shaft and if you tow in neutral the input shaft is stationary while the tranny is turning. I have also been told that this is a lot of hooey, but I also know of a bugeye in which the tranny failed as the result of doing so.
